Advanced Structural Dynamics and Active Control of Structures

Focusing on advanced topics in structural dynamics, this book builds on previous work by adding three new chapters and an expanded appendix. It introduces concepts such as special models, modal actuators and sensors, and system identification. Key updates include discrete-time models, structural damage detection, and new Matlab programs for practical application. The text also references existing literature on structural dynamics and control, providing a comprehensive resource for those seeking in-depth knowledge in the field.
