Background
The reliability of civil engineering structures is paramount for sustainable and resilient infrastructure. Ensuring robust behavior, particularly in the face of extreme events, is crucial for longevity and adaptability. This Special Collection focuses on a pivotal aspect of structural resilience: the control of vibrations, specifically addressing uncertainties. Scholars are invited to contribute original research papers exploring the nuanced interplay between vibration control and broader resilient civil engineering structures. This thematic issue serves as a guide for risk and reliability analysis, emphasizing the vital role of vibration control devices in reinforcing stability amidst uncertainty.
Topics
The collection spans topics such as advanced risk and reliability analysis methods, transformative vibration control technologies, case studies validating techniques, vulnerability assessments, and strategies for enhancing safety and resilience through vibration control. With a dedicated focus on vibration control within the context of resilience, this collection aims to provide technical insights that advance the reliability and longevity of urban infrastructure.
