investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
SEMI-ACTIVE NEURO-CONTROL FOR MINIMIZING SEISMIC RESPONSE OF BENCHMARK STRUCTURES
This article presents numerical studies on semi-active seismic response control of structures equipped with Magneto-Rheological (MR) dampers. A multi-layer artificial neural network (ANN) was employed to mitigate the influence of time delay, This ANN was trained using data from the El-Centro earthquake. The inputs of ANN are the seismic responses of the structure in the current step, and the ou...
متن کاملOptimal Design of Three-Dimensional Structures with Hysteretic Braces
Current seismic codes incorporate well-established simplified approaches to protect and mitigate the response of structures under extreme events using hysteretic passive devices. Nevertheless, a systematic and well-establish methodology for the topological distribution and properties of these devices in three-dimensional structures does not exist. In this paper, we develop a computational frame...
متن کاملSemi-active Control of Building Structures using Variable Stiffness Device and Fuzzy Logic
Semi-active control devices, also called “Intelligent” control devices, constitute the positive aspects of both the passive and active control devices. A semi-active control strategy is similar to the active control strategy, but this control device has been shown to be more energy-efficient than active devices. A particular type of semi-active control device, the Variable Stiffness Device (VSD...
متن کاملHysteretic Models for Deteriorating Inelastic Structures
The modeling of deteriorating hysteretic behavior is becoming increasingly important, especially in the context of seismic analysis and design. This paper presents the development of a versatile smooth hysteretic model based on internal variables, with stiffness and strength deterioration and with pinching characteristics. The theoretical background, development, and implementation of the model...
