In sensed buildings, information related to occupant movement helps optimize functions such as security, energy management, and caregiving. Due to privacy needs, non-intrusive sensing approaches for tracking occupants inside buildings, such as vibrat

In developed countries, structural assessment of existing bridges should not be performed using the same conservative models that are used at the design stage. Field measurements of real behavior provide additional information for the inference of pr

Tensegrity structures are pin-jointed assemblies of struts and cables that are held together in a stable state of stress. Shape control is a combination of control-commands with measurements to achieve a desired form. Applying shape control to a near
