Due to the difficulty in adopting the conventional centralized control method for seismic
response control of high-rise buildings with complex structures and large sizes, the …

The objective of this paper is to study a structural vibration control strategy for seismic
protection of multi-structure systems that combines interstructure passive damping elements …

In this paper, we present a novel two-step strategy for static output-feedback controller
design. In the first step, an optimal state-feedback controller is obtained by means of a linear …

Recent results in output-feedback controller design make possible an efficient computation
of static output-feedback controllers by solving a single-step LMI optimization problem. This …

This paper introduces a decentralized shape and vibration controller for structures with large
and potentially unknown system order, model-parameter uncertainty, and unknown …

The study investigates the problem of decentralized semi-active control of free vibration. The
control scheme is designed for implementation in a modular controller architecture, where a …

In this study, a new magnesium (Mg) alloy containing 0.4% Ce was developed using the
technique of disintegrated melt deposition followed by hot extrusion. The tensile and …

A challenge in the control of civil structures exposed to multiple types of hazards is in the
tuning of control parameters to ensure a prescribed level of performance under substantially …

In this work, a new strategy to design passive energy dissipation systems for vibration
control of large structures is presented. The method is based on the equivalence between …

A decentralized control strategy can effectively solve the control problem of the large‐scale
time delayed structures. In this paper, combining the overlapping decentralized control …
