Abstract: A complete time-delay compensation method is derived. The sensitivity of the stability of the system to the estimation error of the initial condition and excitation, to the estimation error of the delay in the system, and ...

Abstract: An analysis of optimal modal control for tall buildings subjected to earthquake excitation is presented. The output feedback control system is applied under the circumstances that the state of the plant cannot be completely ...

Abstract: An active control system is designed to induce artificial damping to the isolation structure of a building without increasing its stiffness. The control forces needed are exerted only on the base of the structure, and the ...
