Dr Tore Butlin
Regular biography
Dr Tore Butlin is a University Associate Professor in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge. His research focuses on fundamental studies aimed at predicting, understanding, measuring, exploiting, and controlling vibration in nonlinear complex structures across various contexts. Specific interests include friction-induced vibration, such as vehicle brake squeal, turbine blade dynamics, and active noise control. His work integrates theory, numerical modelling, data-driven methods, and experimental testing to develop predictive tools and physical insight for structurally complex systems. He is also involved in exploring the application of machine learning techniques in mechanical models.
