Further Insights into Oscillation Theory

Nikolai Verichev is Principal Researcher at the Mechanical Engineering Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. He received his PhD from Nizhny Novgorod State University in 1985, and specializes in the fields of the qualitative theory of dynamical systems, oscillation theory, nonlinear dynamics, dynamic chaos, and chaotic synchronization. He is the author and co-author of 29 papers, three books and two patents. Stanislav Verichev is Senior Research and Development Engineer at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands, having received his PhD from the same institution in 2002. He specializes in nonlinear dynamics, as well as such practical fields as dredging and mining, oil and gas, civil and mechanical engineering, and deep sea mining. He is the author and co-author of 36 papers, five books and eight patents. Vladimir Erofeev is Professor and Director of the Mechanical Engineering Research Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. He has proposed new methods of non-destructive testing of materials and structures, and developed the scientific foundations of vibration protection systems for machines and structures using inertia and dissipation of rheological media.
