Abstract: The third generation benchmark control problem for seismically excited nonlinear buildings is an effort to evaluate the developed control strategies in order to apply them in field applications. As the fuzzy logic control ...

Abstract: Fuzzy logic control systems have been applied as an effective control system in various fields, including vibration control of structures. The advantage of this approach is its inherent robustness and ability to handle ...

Abstract: Performance of the structure includes both the safety as well as comfort level for the user. The safety of the structure mainly depends on the displacement response, while the comfort level of occupants depends on the ...

Abstract: A natural velocity field method for shape optimization of reinforced concrete (RC) flexural members has been demonstrated. The possibility of shape optimization by modifying the shape of an initially rectangular section, ...
