Description for Control, Optimization, and Smart Structures
Hardcover. "Smart" or "adaptive" structures are designed with embedded computer systems and sensors that modify their reaction to stimuli and events during earthquakes, wind events and blasts. This book explains the technology, and how to work it into a structural design efficiently and effectively. Num Pages: 288 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TJFM; TNC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (XV) Technical / Manuals. Dimension: 243 x 161 x 19. Weight in Grams: 534.
A futuristic guide to smart structure technology
Through the use of active controllers, a structure can modify its behavior during dynamic loading such as impact, wind, or earthquake loading. Such structures with self-modification capability are called adaptive or smart structures. Smart structure technology prevents loss of life and damage to structures during natural disasters. This cross-disciplinary book features computational models and algorithms for active control of a new generation of large adaptive structures subjected to various types of dynamic loading. An important focus of the book is the optimization of both the structure and control systems in order to ... Read more
