The Smart Structures and Dynamical Systems Laboratory (SSDSL) is located in the Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology and is led by Prof. Alper Erturk. SSDSL seeks to understand, manipulate, and leverage vibration and wave phenomena in passive and active structures across geometric scales, disciplines, and applications. Our theoretical and experimental research program addresses high-impact engineering problems at the intersection of smart structures and dynamical systems, with core strengths in structural dynamics, vibration and acoustics, wave propagation, and piezoelectricity.
