[PDF] Active Structural Control: Theory and Practice (Longman structural engineering & structural mechanics series) T. T. Soong

Active structural control means making structures responsive to external forces like earthquakes and hurricanes. Large-scale experimentation is now going on in this field and this book brings together a wealth of information on the practice and theory of active structural control. As well as documenting the most recent advances in the field, the book also looks at the rapid development in allied technologies such as electronics, materials and measurement techniques, which have fuelled the growth of this area.
