| Research Abstract |
The new control algorithm has been introduced to a model eight-story building to demonstrate reduction of vibrations caused by medium earthquakes. As forced vibration tests, sinusoidal excitation to identify the dynamic characteristics of the model structure, non-stationary random wave excitation tests using filtered white noise wave as well as EL Centro NS seismic wave were carried out on a 4m by 4m shaking table. An active dynamic mass damping system installed at the top floor of model structure driven by an AC servomotor through a ball screw was developed. The optimization of the controller is performed taking into account the dynamic characteristics of AMD with the driving mass of 1. kgf. By carrying out digital computer-controlled tests and numerical calculations using the model frame structure, we have obtained that the proposed open-closed control algorithms could perform good control efficiencies and there is an ample possibility for them to be used for seismic response control of actual structures.
The principle results of digital computer-controlled tests and numerical calculations using the model frame structure are summarized as follows :
(1) Effects of the control parameters on the system's response are expressed by two independent variables. One controls the level of feedback, the other reflects the level of input excitation. For a given structural system we found that there are appropriate control parameters to maximize the control efficiencies. From the modal control algorithm, we derived the optimal feedforward gain to offset the excitation term.
(2) Results of the experimental studies done to examine the applicability of the developed optimal control algorithm to an active mass driver system driven by an AC servomotor showed that the proposed closed-open-loop control algorithm gave better control efficiencies than the closed-loop control algorithm and that the seismic response control of actual structures is possible by using them.
