Abstract: Time-domain methods for the identification of linear structural dynamic systems are studied. The stochastic autoregressive and moving average (ARMAX) model is used to process the measured excitation and response records ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new frequency domain identification method for multi-input, multi-output (MIMO) systems. Based on experimentally determined frequency response function data, rational polynomial transfer function ...

Abstract: A sliding mode fuzzy control (SMFC) is proposed to design a controller for the third-generation benchmark problem on wind-excited buildings. A distinctive feature in vibration control of large civil infrastructure is the ...

Abstract: This paper demonstrates how system identification techniques can be successfully applied to a soil–structure interaction system using the earthquake response data. The parameters identified are the shear moduli of several ...

Abstract: A piezoelectric sensor-based health monitoring technique using a two-step support vector machine (SVM) classifier is developed for railroad track damage identification. A
