Introduces the multi-axis substructure testing (MAST) system, an advanced six-degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) hybrid testing facility for large-scale structures

Describes the cyber-physical hybrid testing platform, which combines the best of both worlds: computational simulation and experimental techniques

Demonstrates the responses of physical specimens while they serve as part of the virtual computer model of the full structure subjected to extreme dynamic forces
