The general view of working areas and conference room.

- The top left picture shows the nonlinear pendulum system presents a powerful tool to exhibit all kinds of behaviors such as periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic, which can be observed experimentally or by simulation. It consists of a lumped mass, an electric motor, torsional stiffness produced by the string-spring device, and the nonlinear damping adjusted by a magnetic device.

- The top middle pictures depicts , 16 graduate workstations and 3 workstation for experiments.

- The top right photo, shows a view of our unmanned system facilities. The capacity here is 6 workstations and a large space for experimentation. There is an additional room used for workshop analysis.

- Center image is our high standard conference room.

The bottom left picture shows the Machinery Fault Simulator, which is designed to analyze and help determine the common signature of a machine fault through controlled experimentation. It is a modular, simple, and robust rotor rig designed to fit on a desk. Its modular design allows for the interchangeability of parts and the introduction of single or multiple faults in a controlled manner.

The bottom center picture shows the Nonlinear Dynamic Fault Simulator. Our research has been focused on developing algorithms for diagnostics of nonlinear systems, where faults can be described as changes in the parameters of such a system. For this purpose, a novel fault simulator was designed and fabricated in-house. It incorporates various nonlinearities that appear in practical real systems and are simple enough to be modeled, predicted, controlled, and adjusted for desired performances in the laboratory environment.
