Scholar-generated biography
Dr Philip Bonello is a researcher at the University of Manchester with expertise in Engineering Dynamics, Vibration, and Rotordynamics. His work focuses on the analysis and control of complex mechanical systems, particularly in the context of aero-engine and turbomachinery dynamics. He has published extensively on topics such as nonlinear dynamic response, vibration control, and the use of advanced computational techniques like receptance harmonic balance and impulsive receptance methods. His research also explores the application of adaptive vibration absorbers, magnetorheological dampers, and neural networks for semi-active control systems. Additionally, he investigates energy harvesting through piezoelectric materials and the dynamic behavior of rotating machinery with nonlinear bearings.
