Hybrid Simulation by Victor Saouma and M.V. Sivaselvan
About the Book
* Reviews traditional methodology
* Demonstrates a new cost-effective and efficient approach
* Examines multidisciplinary applications
This cutting-edge volume explores the rapidly evolving technology of hybrid simulation. It first reviews the traditional approach whereby numerical simulation and physical tests are uncoupled and performed separately. It then describes the coupled nature of simulation, which involves combining computer simulation and physical laboratory testing of two complementary substructures. It points out why this is more cost-effective and demonstrates how it allows for the improved understanding of complex coupled systems. This multidisciplinary technology relies heavily on control theory, computer science and numerical techniques, and can find applications in aerospace, civil, and mechanical engineering.
