Embodiment Construction
[0014]Active material based tunable impedance load bearing structures and methods of using tunable impedance load bearing structures are disclosed herein. In contrast to prior art load bearing structures, the tunable impedance load bearing structures disclosed herein have portions formed of, or are fabricated entirely from, active materials. The disclosed tunable impedance load bearing structures advantageously use active materials to variously change an impedance characteristic of the support structure, e.g., a compliance or damping property change. The ability to variously change impedance characteristics greatly increases the functionality of the disclosed load bearing structures by improving the capability to meet the demands of different loading conditions and / or situations. As used herein, the term “load bearing structures” is intended to include without limitation, beams, columns, rails, cables, panels, brackets, connectors, mounts, spacers, grommets, and the like, which coul...
