Abstract: In a companion article, the writers presented a hybrid feedback-least mean square (LMS) algorithm for control of structures through integration of a feedback control algorithm such as the linear quadratic regulator and ...

Abstract: Classical control algorithms such as the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) and linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) algorithms have been used for structural control problems over the past three decades. These algorithms suffer ...

Abstract: Cable-stayed bridges are flexible structures, and control of their vibrations is an important consideration and a challenging problem. In this paper, the wavelet-hybrid feedback least mean squared algorithm recently developed ...

Abstract: The tuned liquid column damper (TLCD) has recently been advanced for vibration control of structures subjected to wind loading. The effectiveness of the semiactive TLCD system and the hybrid viscous fluid damper-TLCD control ...
