The authors illustrate the application of motion control to a wide spectrum of buildings through many examples. Topics covered include optimal stiffness distributions for building-type structures, the role of damping in controlling motion, tuned mass dampers, base isolation systems, linear control, and nonlinear control. The book's primary objective is the satisfaction of motion-related design requirements, such as restrictions on displacement and acceleration. The book is ideal for practicing engineers and graduate students.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book also: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Broadens practitioners' understanding of structural motion control, the enabling technology for motion-based design \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Provides readers the tools to satisfy requirements of modern, ultra-high strength materials that lack corresponding stiffness, where the motion requirements control the design \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Equips engineers and designers to adapt to more-excitable, contemporary structures that experience more structural motion under service loading \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Explains the severe design constraints attending structures such as micro-device and semiconductor manufacturing centers in which the environment must be virtually motion free \u003c\/p\u003e- Illustrates motion-based energy absorption mechanisms as a cost-effective alternative over inelastic deformation to dissipate energy and control structural response \u003cp\u003e- Features nearly 400 figures\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45276814606487,"sku":"9783319379456","price":9447.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783319379456.webp?v=1769286722","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/structural-motion-engineering-9783319379456","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
