Review: These are the proceedings of the 2nd International Conference held in Madrid in June 2000. The smart structure can assess its current state, determining what actions need to be taken to improve its behaviour, and carry out the actions. The papers address these issues, covering the applications of computer methods to model, control and manage the behaviour of smart structures and materials. The 16 papers were on the following topics: sensor and actuator technology; properties of smart materials; physical systems modelling and applications; intelligent systems; active and passive control systems; optimal design; and damage applications
