Principal component analysis and perturbation theory–based robust damage detection of multifunctional aircraft structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A fundamental problem in structural damage detection is to define an efficient feature to calculate a damage index. Furthermore, due to perturbations from various sources, we also need to define a rigorous threshold whose overtaking indicates the ...

Smart SQUIDs based on Relaxation Oscillation SQUIDs [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Smart SQUIDs based on double Relaxation Oscillation SQUIDs (DROS) and a superconducting up-down counter have been developed. DROS and counter form a flux locked loop on one single chip. The DROS output consists of a series of pulses that controls the two

Integrated Design of Smart Structures [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Science and Technology, 2008
Much of structural control research and applications in civil engineering have been concerned with structures equipped with passive, hybrid, or active control devices in order to enhance structural performance under extraordinary loads. In most cases, the structure and the control system are individually designed and optimized.
