Advances in Nonlinear Dynamics and Control of Mechanical and Physical Systems

This book highlights recent advances in nonlinear dynamics and control with applications in mechanics and physics. The book includes selected articles from the 5th Conference on Structural Nonlinear Dynamics and Diagnosis (CSNDD 2023) and presents recent theoretical, experimental and numerical findings covering various topics in nonlinear structural dynamics and diagnosis.  The main topics includes multiple scales dynamics, energy harvesting, dynamics of MEMS, NEMS and AFM, systems with time delay, quasi-periodic oscillations and synchronization, stochastic dynamics, analytical and semi-analytical methods, time series analysis, control  and analysis of switching systems, structural health monitoring, nonlinear vibrations of structures, nonsmouth dynamics, nonlinear phenomena in discrete and continuum systems, dynamic modeling and fault diagnosis, constrained multi-catenary systems, conservative chaotic system, hysteretic structures, and nonlinear PDEs and their dynamics.

Prof. Belhaq joined the University Hassan II-Casablanca in 1982 after receiving his doctorate from the University Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France. He was a Visiting Professor and lecturer several times at the Free University of Berlin, University of Sevilla, University of L'Aquila, Ecole Centrale Lyon, INSA Lyon, Complutense University of Madrid, University of Cottbus, Military University of Warsaw, University of Munich, Cornell University, Virginia Tech University, Purdue University, the Indiana State University, University of Novi Sad, University of Jordan and CNRS Marseille.
Prof. Belhaq is a member of the International Research Center for Mathematics & Mechanics of Complex Systems (M&MoCS) and is the author and co-author of more than 150 scientific indexed papers published in leading journals in mechanics, nonlinear dynamics and applied mathematics. He has contributed to numerous international conferences and workshops.
