The technology of smart structures is evolving to actively control vibration, noise, damping, shape, and stress distribution, and now wider applications are envisaged for aerospace and other systems. Embedded or surface-bonded smart materials on an airplane wing or large flexible space structures should help to control static and dynamic problems for the enhancement of structural performances. This article introduces several analytical and experimental researches on the application of smart materials to control shape and vibration of the composite and aerospace structures.
