SMM News

Our group at the Singapore-ETH Centre (SEC) and the SMM Group at ETH Zurich presents a novel framework for input estimation in monitored systems using Imitation Learning from Observation (ILfO). Published in MSSP, the method reformulates input estimation as a Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP), integrating both known and learned dynamics. Validated through simulations and real-world experiments, it marks a significant step in advancing structural monitoring.

Flexible multi-fidelity framework for load estimation of wind farms through graph neural networks and transfer learning: work led by Gregory Duthé of our Chair of Structural Mechanics and Monitoring at ETH Zurich. The work is co-authored with RTDT Laboratories AG, Vrije Universiteit Brussel & OWI-Lab.

Check out works of our group on Structural Dynamics, Reduced Order Modelling, Structural Health Monitoring, and Decision Making under Uncertainty.

Engadin Art Talks, and the affiliated AAA Experiments series at the Kunsthalle, offer a public platform for knowledge-transfer, an alternative academy of sorts, and a real and imaginary building that constantly changes, adapts, and reinvents itself.

Check out this latest publication in the Data-Centric Engineering journal, led by Marcus Haywood-Alexander in collaboration with Wei Liu, Kiran Bacsa, Zhilu (Oscar) Lai and Eleni Chatzi.

The SMM Chair joins the ETH Competence Center for Materials and Processes (MaP) and the ALIVE initiative as exhibitors at the ETH Zurich Industry Day @ Open-i! Join us in the Science Zone on November 21st for a chance to talk directly with researchers working in the exciting field of advanced engineering with living materials.

With a varied programme and a public exhibition in the ETH main hall, this year's Energy Week from 4 to 8 November will not only highlight the challenges of the energy transition, but also present possible solutions. Three D-BAUG researchers are contributing to this year's programme: Professors Robert Boes, Eleni Chatzi and Adrienne Grêt-Regamey.

The AAA Talks invite conversations between ETH Zürich researchers and artists in the «Mehrwerk». Entry free!
