Abstract:
Over the centuries, exceptional engineers, architects and builders have created structures
that elegantly work in harmony with the elements, carrying gravity, wind, and earthquake
forces, and that stand as historical landmarks that connect us to past generations.
Changing expectations mean that structures are required to be taller, longer, more
irregular, lighter, cheaper and safer. To deliver this, engineers, researchers, analysts and
experimentalists require new approaches to innovative structural design and advanced
assessment tools. This lecture will highlight some of the achievements that have been
made in testing and analyzing the seismic performance of complex structures and
components. Successful projects presented illustrate recent advances and innovations,
and point towards future challenges and opportunities.
Brief Bio:
B.F. Spencer, Jr. received his Ph.D. in theoretical and
applied mechanics from the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign in 1985. He worked on the faculty at
the University of Notre Dame for 17 years before
returning to the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign, where he currently holds the Nathan M. and
Anne M. Newmark Endowed Chair in Civil Engineering
and is the Director of the Newmark Structural Engineering
Laboratory. His research has been primarily in the areas of
smart
structures,
stochastic
fatigue,
stochastic
computational mechanics, and natural hazard mitigation.
He is a Fellow of ASCE, a Foreign Member of the Polish
Academy of Sciences, the North American Editor in Chief of Smart Structures and
Systems, and the past president of the Asia-Pacific Network of Centers for Research in
Smart Structures Technology.
