| Short description
Exploring new concepts of smart technologies and their applications,Smart Technologies for Safety Engineering presents original methods and software tools for modeling. The text includes the design, simulation, and control of adaptive structures and the application of the smart-tech concept to the following hot research topics and emerging engineering issues: health monitoring of structures and engineering systems; monitoring and prediction of environmental conditions; automatic structural adaptation to unpredictable, randomly changing dynamic conditions; and optimal design of adaptive structures and engineering systems.
