Abstract: The primary objective of this paper is to study the dynamic responses of a flexible multiple degree-of-freedom structure coupled with the three-dimensional motions of a nonlinear pendulum tuned mass damper (PTMD). The ...

Abstract: Detuning, resulting from deterioration, inadvertent changes to structure properties, and design forecasting, can lead to a significant loss of performance in tuned mass dampers (TMDs). To overcome this issue, an adaptive ...

Abstract: Recently, blind source separation (BSS) methods have gained significant attention in the area of signal processing. Independent component analysis (ICA) and second-order blind identification (SOBI) are two popular BSS ...

Abstract: The modified cross-correlation (MCC) blind identification method is extended to handle the underdetermined case of structural system identification. The underdetermined case is one in which the number of sensors is less ...
