Semi-active Pneumatic Devices for Control of MDOF Structures
A preliminary study of a semi-active control system with pneumatic devices, aimed to improve the response of multi-degree of freedom structures to earthquakes, is presented. The devices are attached at various levels of a structural frame. The aim of the design is to find a combination of forces that are produced by the devices, in order to obtain optimal structural response. The mechanical res...
متن کاملActive viscous damping system for control of MDOF structures
The development and applications of a supplemental viscous damping device with active capacity are described. The system of the dampers de ned as active viscous damping system (AVDS) is presented herein. Structural control principles de ned here as active control theory (ACT) are used to obtain the control forces at each time step during an excitation. Control of the damping forces is possible ...
متن کاملSEMI-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 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 کاملA pneumatic semi-active control methodology for vibration control of air spring based suspension systems
This research investigates a pneumatic suspension system containing an air spring, air flow valve, and an accumulator, where the spring and damping functions are combined into one package. The spring and accumulator provide the spring characteristics, and the computer controlled adjustable valve provides the damping characteristics by automatically adjusting the air flow between the air spring ...
