| Brian Feeny received his B.S., M.S. and PhD in Mechanics from the University of Wisconsin - Madison (1984), the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (1986), and Cornell University (1990), and then held a postdoctoral position at the Institute of Robotics, ETH in Zurich, Switzerland. He joined the faculty of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Michigan State University in 1992, where he is now an Associate Professor. He is currently secretary of the Technical Committee on Vibration and Sound for the ASME, and serves as an associate editor for the ASME Journal of Vibration and Acoustics. His research interests are in dynamics and vibration, with current activities in nonlinear dynamics, chaos, proper orthogonal decomposition, friction dynamics, and system identification.
