Smart structure dynamics
This paper gives an overview of research in the area of smart structure dynamics. A general description of smart material systems is given. Particular focus is given to the following fields of application: semi-passive concepts, energy harvesting, semi-active concepts, active vibration control, and active structural acoustic control. The use of smart structures in structural health monitoring applications is also considered.
