"Smart" materials respond to environmental stimuli with particular changes in some variables. For that reason they are often also called responsive materials. Depending on changes in some external conditions, "smart" materials change either their properties (mechanical, electrical, appearance), their structure or composition, or their functions. Mostly, "smart" materials are embedded in systems whose inherent properties can be favourably changed to meet performance needs. Smart materials and structures have widespread applications in: 1. Materials science: composites, ceramics, processing science, interface science, sensor/actuator materials, chiral materials, conducting and chiral polymers, electrochromic materials, liquid crystals, molecular-level smart materials, biomaterials. 2. Sensing and actuation: electromagnetic, acoustic, chemical and mechanical sensing and actuation, single-measurand sensors, multiplexed multimeasurand distributed sensors and actuators, sensor/actuator signal processing, compatibility of sensors and actuators with conventional and advanced materials, smart sensors for materials and composites processing. 3. Optics and electromagnetics: optical fibre technology, active and adaptive optical systems and components, tuneable high-dielectric phase shifters, tuneable surface control. 4. Structures: smart skins for drag and turbulence control, other applications in aerospace/hydrospace structures, civil infrastructures, transportation vehicles, manufacturing equipment, repairability and maintainability. 5. Control: structural acoustic control, distributed control, analogue and digital feedback control, real-time implementation, adaptive structure stability, damage implications for structural control. 6. Information processing: neural networks, data processing, data visualisation and reliability. This book presents leading research from around the globe in this field.

This book introduces the enabling concepts that make up the so-called smart structure and presents a number of brief case studies to illustrate the applications of these concepts. It examines the domains of the individual technologies and defines the challenges faced by the integrator. The book is particularly effective for the potential system user who needs a good technical general background on the subject and is also useful for students and researchers in contributory technologies who want to better understand the context of their work. Consultants in civil and structural engineering will also find it of interest.

Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). Smart materials and structures is an area of technology which has been around for approximately 30 years or more where materials and structures are augmented by sensing and actuation functionality, and those functions are combined with control elements, all becoming an integral part of the materials and structures considered. This book collects selected Plenary Lectures and Key-Note Lectures from the VI Eccomas Thematic Conference on Smart Structures and Materials (SMART13), June 24-26, 2013, Torino, Italy.

In the search for new functional materials, a clear understanding about the relationship between the physical properties and the atomic-scale structure of materials is needed. Here, the authors provide graduate students and scientists with an in-depth account of the evolutionary behavior of oxide functional materials within specific structural systems, discussing the intrinsic connections among these different structural systems. Over 300 illustrations and key appendices support the text.

Smart Material Structures addresses modeling parameter estimation and control in smart material systems. This has applications in structural systems, structural acoustics, fluid/structure interactions, vibration absorbers in machine, helicopter rotor design, and many other areas. This monograph discusses implementation and experimental changes with rigorous mathematical presentation. The authors provide a mathematical frame to be used when designing controllers, focusing on systems in which structural vibrations or interactions with adjacent fields are controlled using surface-mounted Piezoceramic actuators and sensors are correct in detail.
