Beschreibung
Dynamics of Smart Structures is a practical, concise andintegrated text that provides an introduction to the fundamentalprinciples of a field that has evolved over the recent years intoan independent and identifiable subject area. Bringing together theconcepts, techniques and systems associated with the dynamics andcontrol of smart structures, it comprehensively reviews thediffering smart materials that are employed in the development ofthe smart structures and covers several recent developments in thefield of structural dynamics.
Dynamics of Smart Structures has been developed tocomplement the author's new interdisciplinary programme of study atQueen Mary, University of London that includes courses on emergingand new technologies such as biomimetic robotics, smart compositestructures, micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) and theirapplications and prosthetic control systems. It includes chapterson smart materials and structures, transducers for smartstructures, fundamentals of structural control, dynamics ofcontinuous structures, dynamics of plates and plate-likestructures, dynamics of piezoelectric media, mechanics ofelectro-actuated composite structures, dynamics of thermo-elasticmedia: shape memory alloys, and controller designs for flexiblestructures.

"Examples of structures assembled from smart materials demonstratebasic principles and illustrate properties of commonly used smartstructure prototypes. Extending beyond the needs of a two-semesteror one-year course, the text can be used for a senior undergraduateor graduate course." (Book News, September 2010)
