abstract

in this paper the control algorithm for controlled civil structures subjected to earthquake excitation is thoroughly investigated. the objective of this work is the control of structures by means of the pole placement algorithm, in order to improve their response against earthquake actions. successful application of the algorithm requires judicious placement of the closed-loop eigenvalues from the part of the designer. the pole placement algorithm was widely applied to control mechanical systems. in this paper, a modification in the mathematical background of the algorithm in order to be suitable for civil fixed structures is primarily presented. the proposed approach is demonstrated by numerical simulations for the control of both single and multi-degree of freedom systems subjected to seismic actions. numerical results have shown that the control algorithm is efficient in reducing the response of building structures, with small amount of required control forces.

Stochastic analysis of two adjacent structures subjected to structural pounding under earthquake excitation

Seismic pounding occurs as a result of lateral vibration and insufficient separation distance between two adjacent structures during earthquake excitation. This research aims to evaluate the stochastic behavior of adjacent structures with equal heights under earthquake-induced pounding. For this purpose, many stochastic analyses through comprehensive numerical simulations are carried out. About...

INVESTIGATION OF NON-LINEAR CYCLES’ PROPERTIES IN STRUCTURES SUBJECTED TO ENDURANCE TIME EXCITATION FUNCTIONS

Endurance Time Method (ET) is a dynamic analysis in which structures are subjected to intensifying accelerograms that are optimized in a way that seismic performance of structures can be estimated at different hazard levels with the best possible accuracy. For the currently available ET accelerograms, regardless of the shaking characteristic, an excitation level is recognized as a representativ...

Pole Placement Using Genetic Algorithm with Integral Control

This paper presents the application of genetic algorithms to find the optimum feedback gains in pole placement with integral control to get the desired performance in control system. Performances are measured in terms of key parameters like settling time, peak overshoot, undershoot, rise time etc in control system. The major drawbacks of pole placement technique are to get optimum location of p...

Algorithm design for structured systems: application to pole placement

Numerical algorithms for signal processing and control are quite often constructed by intuition. When the system to be designed contains algebraic or other invariants, then these constraints can be exploited to find appropriate transformations. The transformations in system theory are usually Lie groups. One has to find Lie groups which are consistent with the invariants. We show how this point...

Adaptive fuzzy pole placement for stabilization of non-linear systems

A new approach for pole placement of nonlinear systems using state feedback and fuzzy system is proposed. We use a new online fuzzy training method to identify and to obtain a fuzzy model for the unknown nonlinear system using only the system input and output. Then, we linearized this identified model at each sampling time to have an approximate linear time varying system. In order to stabilize...
