ABSTRACT:

SPAWAR researchers are looking into issues ranging from nonlinear dynamics of sensors, and Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) to bring about improvements in current systems. The Advanced Dynamics Research group at SPAWAR is globally recognized as one of the premier groups for research in nonlinear dynamics and, possibly, the leading group on practical applications. This effort, featured on the cover of Physics Today in 1996, led to his being awarded SSC Pacific’s highest recognition, the Lauritsen-Bennett award. This work has led to a compact, cheap and sensitive room temperature magnetometer that the Marine Corps is considering as an intrusion sensor. This talk with feature an overview of how nonlinear science is applied into actual devices and systems.
