Welcome to the website of the RPI Intelligent Structural Systems Laboratory (ISSL)! The mission of ISSL is to develop methodologies that will enable the next generation of intelligent, self-aware aerial vehicles that can "feel," "think," and "react". Research on ISSL focuses on advanced data-driven stochastic modeling, identification and learning methods in the face of complex dynamic environments and uncertainty. Our work lies at the intersection of stochastic systems, machine learning and physics-based domain knowledge. Particular emphasis is placed on intelligent structural systems, fault diagnosis and structural health monitoring, and "fly-by-feel" aerial vehicles.
