Optimal Design of Adaptive Structures

  • Chapter
Smart Structures

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((ASHT,volume 65))

Abstract

The optimal design of actively controlled structures consists of the following (usually combined) problems: a) design of sensor’s location for the best structural observability, b)design of actuator’s location for the best structural controllability, c) design of the best control strategy, d) remodelling of material distribution.
