Overview
Christoph Schwingshackl leads the Structural Dynamics Group in the Vibration University Technology Centre sponsored by Rolls-Royce plc. (www3.imperial.ac.uk/vutc)
His main research interests are:
- The prediction of the nonlinear dynamic response of aircraft engine assemblies
- Dynamic behaviour of joints and other contact surfaces (analysis and measurement)
- Validation techniques for linear and nonlinear dynamic models
- Experimental techniques for nonlinear vibration measurements (Operational Level excitation, Full Field measurement techniques)
- Rotor dynamics (Gyroscopic and Coriolis effects)
- Vibrotactile Feedback
