Science is for those who learn; poetry for those who know. -Joseph
Roux This book is a continuation of my previous book, Dynamics and
Control of Structures [44]. The expanded book includes three
additional chapters and an additional appendix: Chapter 3, "Special
Models"; Chapter 8, "Modal Actuators and Sensors"; and Chapter 9,
"System Identification. " Other chapters have been significantly
revised and supplemented with new topics, including discrete-time
models of structures, limited-time and -frequency grammians and
reduction, almo- balanced modal models, simultaneous placement of
sensors and actuators, and structural damage detection. The
appendices have also been updated and expanded. Appendix A consists
of thirteen new Matlab programs. Appendix B is a new addition and
includes eleven Matlab programs that solve examples from each
chapter. In Appendix C model data are given. Several books on
structural dynamics and control have been published. Meirovitch's
textbook [108] covers methods of structural dynamics (virtual work,
d'Alambert's principle, Hamilton's principle, Lagrange's and
Hamilton's equations, and modal analysis of structures) and control
(pole placement methods, LQG design, and modal control). Ewins's
book [33] presents methods of modal testing of structures. Natke's
book [111] on structural identification also contains excellent
material on structural dynamics. Fuller, Elliot, and Nelson [40]
cover problems of structural active control and structural acoustic
control.
