A V Srinivasan和D Michael麦克法兰写了一本关于智能结构设计和分析的有价值的书。这本书总结了材料的工作原理,这些材料的特性可以通过改变外部参数来改变。在这本书中审查的材料是:压电材料,形状记忆合金和电流变和磁流变液。它还讨论了纤维光学和仿生学。此外,它提供了描述的行为的本构方程。在作者描述材料的同时,他们还举例说明了如何利用这些特性来设计、建造和分析智能结构,即按需运行的结构。这本书从材料属性和智能结构之间的区别开始,并强调了“智能”不能归因于材料的事实-它是由材料制成的结构,并嵌入了智能控制。这本书描述了在尺蠖马达的发展和结构部件的致动中使用压电特性。接下来讨论了形状记忆合金,它们的转变机制,并描述了解释形状记忆效应的本构方程。然后讨论了使杆和结构的振动控制设计成为可能的实验。接下来的组成,行为,模型,应用(离合器和阻尼器)和装置的几何形状的影响时,使用电流变和磁流变液进行了讨论。完整的章节致力于减振装置和失谐结构的设计和控制问题,是相关的主题。作者还介绍了光纤、仿生学、纤维增强结构及其在传感竞技场中的应用。这本书探讨了一个重要的主题。书中的大多数例子都是基于作者过去的工作。实施例中描述的结构的尺度范围从微观域到宏观域。这本书不是很流畅,可能是因为方程中的变量定义得很差,在许多情况下方程的介绍没有太多的背景。书中使用的单位并不一致,也许是反映了资源所抽取的30年跨度。没有详细讨论结构的尺寸和缩放的影响。这本书是一个有用的来源本构方程的一个执业工程师。在其目前的版本,这将是很好的参考书,为学生谁已经研究了这些材料至少一个学期。谢卡尔·班萨利
A V Srinivasan and D Michael McFarland have written a valuable book on design and analysis of smart structures. The book summarizes the operating principles of materials whose properties can be varied by changing an external parameter. The materials reviewed in this book are: Piezoelectric Materials, Shape Memory Alloys and Electrorheological and Magnetorheological Fluids. It also discusses fibre optics and biomimetics. In addition, it provides constitutive equations that describe the behaviour. As the authors describe the materials, they also describe, with examples, how these properties can be used to design, build and analyse smart structures, i.e. structures that function as desired. The book begins with a differentiation between material properties and smart structures and highlights the fact that `smartness' cannot be attributed to the material - it's the structures made from materials and embedded with controls that are smart. The book describes the use of piezoelectric properties in the development of inchworm motors and actuation of structural components. It next discusses shape memory alloys, their mechanism of transformation and describes the constitutive equations that explain the shape memory effect. The experiments that enable design for vibration control of rods and structures are then discussed. Next the composition, behaviour, models, applications (clutches and dampers) and effect of device geometry when using electrorheological and magnetorheological fluids are discussed. Complete chapters are dedicated to the design of vibration reduction devices and mistuned structures and control issues that are relevant to the subject. The authors have also described the use of fibre optics, biomimetics, fibre-reinforced structures and their applications in the sensing arena. The book addresses an important theme. Most of the examples reported in the book are based on the authors' past work. The scale of the structures described in the examples ranges from the micro domain to the macro domain. The book does not flow very well, probably because the variables in equations are poorly defined and in many instances equations are introduced without much background. The units used in the book are not consistent, perhaps a reflection of the 30 year span from which the resources are drawn. The effect of size and scaling of structures is not discussed in detail. The book is a useful source of constitutive equations for a practising engineer. In its current edition, it would be good reference book for a student who has studied these materials for at least a semester. Shekhar Bhansali
