Abstract
The hybrid structural experiment decomposes a structure into independent substructures that can be tested or simulated. The substructures being tested or simulated may be distributed at different facilities of different locations, and are managed by the simulation coordinator. There exist interactions among the simulation coordinator and the substructures since they give and receive the commands and feedbacks during the experimental process. These interactions are described in this paper for an example hybrid structural experiment using the classes and objects in the Lehigh Model which is one of the data models for structural experiments. The simulation coordinator and the substructures have the objects for the interaction data files, and are linked together through the same types of the interface links. The objects for the interactions presented in this paper can be implemented in a consistent way, and be used for developing the computer system for the hybrid structural experiments.
