Introduction Systems of adaptive impact absorption (AIA) are intended mainly for transport engineering.
They constitute a subfield of safety engineering and involve various techniques for monitoring of technical conditions and excitations of engineering structures.
In the case of a large, civil or transport engineering structure, such an actuation might be hazardous and requires substantial energy supply.
· In arctic engineering, drifting ice induces dynamic loads on towers of off-shore wind turbines, which cause severe vibrations.
