Adaptive structures are autonomous structural systems with integrated multifunctional smart materials as actuators and sensors, connected by a control system, to facilitate adaptation to changing environmental conditions. This collection of 48 papers is based on a Euromech 373 colloquium on the subject held in Magdeburg in March 1998. The main topics are adaptive structures technology, adaptive material systems and actuators, damage detection in smart material, finite elements, multilayered structures and composites, modeling and optimization, control, neural networks and shape detection, and adaptive structural systems. Applications in satellites, wind energy converters, and smart antenna reflectors round out the volume. No index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Synopsis

48 papers presented at the EUROMECH 373 Colloquium on Modelling and Control of Adaptive Mechanical Structures held in Magdeburg, March 11-13, 1998. Adaptive structures (smart structures) are autonomous structural systems with integrated multifunctional smart materials as actuators and sensors, connected by a control system to facilitate adaption to changing environmental conditions (such as active vibration quenching, shape stability, and high-precision positioning). Recently, in many branches of engineering, adaptive structural concepts have been given increasing attention. Although the field of adaptive structures has grown rapidly, it is still young and many new and exciting possibilities can be expected in the near future. Topics covered are: Adaptive Structures Technology Adaptive Material Systems and Actuators Damage Detection in Smart Material Finite Elements for Adaptive Structures Multilayered Structures and Composites Modelling of Adaptive Structures Optimization of Adaptive Structures Control of Adaptive Structures Neural Networks, Shape Detection Adaptive Structural Systems Application of Adaptive Structures.
