Abstract
Dynamic control of smart structures has drawn significant attention in the past decades. Estimation of stress–strain response is essential to access safety and serviceability of smart structure by introducing the sensors and actuators under dynamic loading. The self-actuating and self-diagnostic properties of sensors and actuators control the vibration functions of smart structure. This paper evaluates semi-active control strategy for retaining wall with horizontal dynamic loading. The stress–strain response of retaining wall-PZT system consists of retaining wall interfaced with a PZT patch between the wall and granular backfill have been analyzed. The variation of stress–strain response with modulus ratio of retaining wall and PZT patch is presented graphically. A model is presented to examine the effect of retaining wall-PZT system on vibration induced in retaining structure due to horizontal dynamic loading compared with vertical loading condition.
