Abstract

This chapter provides an introduction to what is covered in this book. A general definition of smart structures along with a list of few select active materials as the building blocks of smart structures is given first. The concept of vibration control and its classifications are presented next, followed by an overview of different modeling and control strategies for both discrete and continuous dynamical systems.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The words “structures” and “systems” are used interchangeably for “smart structures” in the literature. We must, however, note that “structures” typically refer to particular elements or mechanical components, while “systems” are more general forms and include a collection of components that may be defined by real or imaginary boundaries. It is worthy to note that all structures are systems.

  2. 2.

    There is an increasing interest within the smart structures community in replacing the traditionally used word “smart” with “intelligent”.

  3. 3.

    Most parts of this section may have come directly from our book chapter on the subject matter (Jalili and Esmailzadeh 2005).
