Summary: A smart structure integrates sensors, actuators, signal processors, communication networks, power sources, and possibly smart materials, to sense and react to its environment. This book runs from the fundamentals to the state-of-the-art topics such as energy harvesting, self-repairing, and life cycle performance. It covers structural health monitoring systems and structural vibration control systems, both of which contain similar hardware such as sensors, signal processors, networks, and power sources, and there are great benefits in considering them together. It suits civil engineering students, professionals, and researchers with its blend of principles and practice. |
