Real-time hybrid simulation approach for performance validation of structural active control systems: a linear motor actuator based active mass driver case study
Small-scale models have been commonly utilized in testing of performance of active mass driver (AMD) control systems. The utmost reason is that physical testing of AMD system at full scale is usually too expensive to afford, as well as hard to implement on site. With reference to the real-time hybrid simulation technology, a real-time AMD subsystem testing method is proposed in this paper. In this method, the entire system is composed of AMD as physical subsystem and target structure as numerical subsystem. The physical test is conducted on AMD subsystem, whereas the numerical simulation is carried out on the structure subsystem. Meanwhile, the real-time data are being communicated between these two subsystems. This method is then applied to the performance validation of a novel AMD control system, which is driven by a linear motor. In the test, a benchmark three-storey frame structure is employed as the numerical subsystem, and earthquake excitations are used as the external input. On the basis of a series of tests, both the time history and the statistical criteria show that the results of AMD subsystem and structure subsystem obtained in the real-time AMD subsystem test agree well with the simulation results. Furthermore, all the test results show good repeatability. Therefore, the feasibility and reliability of the proposed real-time AMD subsystem testing approach for performance validation of AMD subsystem has been demonstrated. Such kind of experimental method is efficient in terms of reducing cost associated with performance validation of large-scale active control systems prior to the implementation.
