The importance of machining to the aerospace industry has led to the partnering of Dr. Brian Mann at Duke University with Boeing researchers Ryan Hanks, Amy Helvey, and Dr. Keith Young who are investigating the dynamics of a machining process called milling.
Penn State and the University of Maryland have held a joint semi-annual dynamics workshop since 1989. The workshops include cutting edge dynamical systems talks. The upcoming spring workshop will include the unveiling of a new journal.
