Advanced Structural Dynamics and Active Control of Structures

Advanced Structural Dynamics and Active Control of Structures (Mechanical Engineering Series)

Science is for those who learn; poetry for those who know. â€•Joseph Roux This book is a continuation of my previous book, Dynamics and Control of Structures [44]. The expanded book includes three additional chapters and an additional appendix: Chapter 3, â€œSpecial Modelsâ€; Chapter 8, â€œModal Actuators and Sensorsâ€; and Chapter 9, â€œSystem Identification. â€ Other chapters have been significantly revised and supplemented with new topics, including discrete-time models of structures, limited-time and -frequency grammians and reduction, almo- balanced modal models, simultaneous placement of sensors and actuators, and structural damage detection. The appendices have also been updated and expanded. Appendix A consists of thirteen new Matlab programs. Appendix B is a new addition and includes eleven Matlab programs that solve examples from each chapter. In Appendix C model data are given. Several books on structural dynamics and control have been published. Meirovitchâ€™s textbook [108] covers methods of structural dynamics (virtual work, dâ€™Alambertâ€™s principle, Hamiltonâ€™s principle, Lagrangeâ€™s and Hamiltonâ€™s equations, and modal analysis of structures) and control (pole placement methods, LQG design, and modal control). Ewinsâ€™s book [33] presents methods of modal testing of structures. Natkeâ€™s book [111] on structural identification also contains excellent material on structural dynamics. Fuller, Elliot, and Nelson [40] cover problems of structural active control and structural acoustic control.
