    Research Topics for Practical Implementation of Structural Control

    To minimize the potential of catastrophic failures, many structures have been designed with redundant load paths. These structures with multiple load paths are said to be fail-safe. As an additional redundancy...

    Damage Identification of Existing Structures

    In the classical theory of structural reliability as given by Freudenthal (1947), a structure is said to fail whenever the applied force exceeds its corresponding resistance. Although much progress has been ma...
