Brake, Matthew R.; Reuss, Pascal R.; Schwingshackl, Christoph W.; Salles, Loic S.; Negus, Michaela N.; Peebles, Diane E.; Mayes, R.L.; Bilbao-Ludena, Juan-Carlos B.; Bonney, Matthew S.; Catalfamo, Simone C.; Gastaldi, Chiara G.; Gross, Johann G.; Lacayo, Robert M.; Robertson, Brett A.; Smith, Scott S.; Swacek, Christian S.; Tiedemann, Merten T.

A collaborative research institute was organized and held at Sandia Albuquerque for a period of six weeks. This research institute brought together researchers from around the world to work collaboratively on a set of research projects. These research projects included: developing experimental guidelines for studying variability and repeatability of nonlinear structures; decoupling aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty in measurements to improve dynamic predictions; a numerical round robin to assess the performance of five different numerical codes for modeling systems with strong nonlinearities; and an assessment of experimentally derived and numerically derived reduced order models. In addition to the technical collaborations, the institute also included a series of seminars given by both Sandians and external experts, as well as a series of tours and field trips to local places of scientific and engineering importance. This report details both the technical research and the programmatic organization of the 2014 Sandia Nonlinear Mechanics and Dynamics Summer Research Institute.
