Abstract: A new semiactive control strategy that combines a neurocontrol system with a smart damper is proposed to reduce seismic responses of structures. In the proposed semiactive control system, the improved neurocontroller, which ...

Abstract: This paper experimentally investigates the feasibility of an adaptive passive control system, which consists of a magnetorheological (MR) fluid damper and an electromagnetic induction (EMI) part, for suppressing vibration ...
