- Abstract
This paper presents a series of Java-Powered Virtual Laboratories (VLs), which have been developed to provide a means for on-line interactive experiments for undergraduate and graduate education. These VLs intend to provide a conceptual understanding of a wide range of topics related to earthquake engineering, including structural control using the tuned mass damper (TMD) and the hybrid mass damper (HMD), linear and nonlinear base isolation system, and nonlinear structural dynamic analysis of multi-story buildings. A total of five VLs are currently available on-line at: <URL>http://cee.uiuc.edu/sstl/java</URL> and have been incorporated as a reference implementation of educational modules in the NEESgrid software (<URL>http://www.neesgrid.org/</URL>). © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
