Computational Methods for Smart Structures and Materials II (Structures and Materials)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Smart structures have the ability to assess their present state, determine a set of actions that can be undertaken in order to improve their behaviour, and carry out the necessary actions to achieve this. The contributors to this book address all or some of these issues as well as the development of new materials. Computational methods which can be applied to model, control and manage the behaviour of smart structures and materials are also highlighted.

Originally presented at the Second International Conference on Computational Methods for Smart Structures and Materials, the papers included come from engineers and researchers working at the forefront of this exciting field. They are divided under the following headings: Sensor and Actuator Technologies; Properties of Smart Materials; Physical Systems Modelling and Applications; Intelligent Systems; Active and Passive Control Systems; Optimal Design; Damage Applications.
