Control theories and techniques have been successfully applied in many areas such as aerospace engineering, navigation, and manufacturing. However, only recently their applications to civil engineering structures such as buildings and bridges for their safety and confort design in seismic or wind conditions have been seriously pursued. The potential and future research needs for such applications were the focal points of discussion during a recent National Workshop on Structural Control Research, held at the University of Southern California (USC) in October, 1990. One essential component of the structural control technology is that related to new sensors, actuators, and signal processing which was not covered during the USC Workshop. These aspects hold the key to the successful implementation of structural control from both technological and practical considerations that represent a rapidly evolving field of cross-disciplinary nature. This Workshop will bring together a number of key academic and industry researchers active in structural control and behavior, sensors and actuator technology, and signal processing to identify those research directions which offer the greatest potential impact on structural performance. This effort will provide a critical component of the technical basis required for the development and implementation of control technology in providing the design safety of new structures. It will also provide valuable insights on the potential use of control technology in the upgrading and rehabilitation of vulnerable existing structures which are exposed to the threat of natural hazards.

控制理论和技术已经成功地应用于许多领域，如航空航天工程、航海和制造业。然而，直到最近，它们才被认真地应用于土木工程结构，如建筑物和桥梁，以确保其在地震或风力条件下的安全性和舒适性设计。今年10月，在南加州大学（USC）举行的结构控制研究全国研讨会上，这种应用的潜在和未来研究需求是讨论的焦点。1990. 结构控制技术的一个重要组成部分是与新的传感器、执行器和信号处理相关的，这些在USC研讨会期间没有涉及。这些方面是成功实施结构控制的关键，从技术和实际考虑，代表了一个快速发展的跨学科性质的领域。本次研讨会将汇集一些活跃在结构控制和行为，传感器和执行器技术，并通过信号处理识别出对结构性能影响最大的研究方向。这一努力将为开发和实施控制技术以保证新结构的设计安全性提供所需的技术基础的关键组成部分。它还将提供宝贵的见解，说明控制技术在升级和修复易受自然灾害威胁的现有结构方面的潜在用途。
