Active control of wind-excited structures
AbstractThe concept of applying active damping to reduce the effects of environmental loads on the structural response and stability of tall structures is a topic of increasing interest. Active control of seismic structures is currently under extensive study. Reduced scale experiments have proven the feasibility of applying active control systems to seismic structures. Recently, active mas dampers have been installed on an eleven-story building. Unlike passive control devices, active controls require external energy for their operation.It is well known that windstorms occur more frequently than catastrophic earthquakes. Passive control systems have recently been used ib tall buildings. The active control systems proposed for structural control of wind-excited structures are to be used for limiting building floor drift and reducing discomfort of occupants of tall buildings. The systems could also be used to control where vibrations of bridges and other important structures where vibration limitations are critical.
