James L. Beck
Professor of Engineering and Applied Science
Research interests:
Professor Beck conducts research in computational stochastic dynamics (reliability analyses, Bayesian system identification, state estimation and control), using probability to treat uncertainties in modeling the system and its excitation. Applications of current interest are: dynamics of structural systems under earthquakes and a stochastic mechanics approach to quantum mechanics.
