Smart technologies for safety engineering

See all formats and editions

This book discusses the topics of: new concepts of smart technologies and their applications; original methods and software tools for modelling; the design, simulation and control of adaptive structures; and, the application of the smart-tech concept to the following hot research topics and emerging engineering issues: health monitoring of structures and engineering systems, monitoring and prediction of environmental conditions, automatic structural adaptation to unpredictable and randomly changing dynamic conditions, and optimal design of adaptive structures and engineering systems.

All the above-mentioned topics are the key issues of safety engineering, encompassing automatic damage detection, unpredictable impact identification (e.g. due to automotive collision, earthquake, terrorist attack or mine bump) and on-line mitigation of catastrophic impact results.
