Summary: | The introduction of active, adaptive, smart or intelligent materials has created many new concepts and paradigms for system control and design in a wide range of disciplines. However, the smart system and its manufacturing process also encounter many issues, and fundamental research in characterization of newly developed smart materials and constitutive and fatigue models remains to be done. The primary focuses of this research project are to thoroughly investigate the fundamental working principles of newly developed smart materials and to develop the up-stream engineering technologies for smart materials and structures. |
