Dynamics of Advanced Materials and Smart Structures
Search in google:
Forty-five contributions written by an international group of researchers and scholars present highlights from the five-day IUTAM symposium held in May 2002. Organized into five sections (advanced materials, sensors and actuators, smart structure concept, controllability for shape and vibration, and bio-mimetic structures), chapters address a range of topics including the material science for sensor and actuator such as active fluid, polymer, piezoelectric, shape memory, and functionally graded materials, as well as structural dynamics and shape control. Other topics include biostructures and mathematical modeling for highly coupled phenomena. Of likely interest to researchers and engineers from theoretical and applied mechanics and many other disciplines, as well as to engineers involved with sound, vibration, and shape controls in advanced industry.
