Optimized and decentralized pulse control of seismically excited steel structures
Abstract The idea of decomposing a centralized complicated system into several synchronous decentralized subsystems has been resulted into the development of decentralized control methods. In this study, a decentralized pulse control scheme is presented based on the theory of Inclusion Principle for steel systems comprising a multi-overlapping structure. The proposed control algorithm is basically an active control system that generates corrective pulses at each moment when the displacement or acceleration exceeds the predefined threshold. In order to evaluate the performance of proposed control system, a numerical study is conducted. The control system is implemented for two linear structural models of five- and twenty-story steel buildings. An optimization algorithm (PSO) is also used to determine the locations of required control inputs in the 20-story building. The results show that the proposed algorithm can substantially mitigate the structural response under different earthquake records (for 5-story model) and different subsystem configurations (for 20-story model).
