Research Description
Oliver O'Reilly is primarily interested in developing and analyzing models of physical systems in order to explain and or predict their dynamics. The applications considered in his research include MEMS strain gauges, satellite dynamics, toys (BB-8,?the Dynabee, the Hoberman sphere and Euler's disk), axially moving media and MEMS resonators for UHF applications. He is also interested in the history of science, geometric and numerical methods in dynamics, theories of deformable bodies and great teaching.
