| Research Abstract |
To develop a comprehensive smart structural systems, it is necessary to focus on either the innate characteristics of material itself or on a combination of computational and mechanical technology that combines a sensors, actuations, data processing, and expression. In addition, structural inter-predation of the aspects of artificial life will coincide with the development of technology related to each aspect. In corporation smart structural system into buildings is the future of earthquake countermeasures.
In this research program, piezoelectric and shape memory alloys as a controllable materials are investigated to develop the optimum application in complicated building structures. Also smart sensing diagnostic assessment and net-work systems as a date processing are investigated analytically and experimentally.
The performance of smart structural systems depends on the smart materials. When we reach a consensus on the requirement of future smart structural systems, incorporation of smart material into these systems will proceed. When that occur, it will be important to develop reliable smart material and system technology for evaluating the vulnerability of each component of smart structural systems.
