Book Vibration of Buildings to Wind and Earthquake Loads

Download or read book Vibration of Buildings to Wind and Earthquake Loads written by T. Balendra and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in the development of high strength materials, coupled with more advanced computational methods and design procedures, have led to a new generation of tall and slender buildings. These structures are very sensitive to the most common dynamic loads; wind and earthquakes. The primary requirement for a successful design is to provide safety while taking into account serviceability requirements. This book provides a well-balanced and broad coverage of the information needed for the design of structural systems for wind- and earthquake-resistant buildings. It covers topics such as the basic concepts in structural dynamics and structural systems, the assessment of wind and earthquake loads acting on the system, the evaluation of the system response to such dynamic loads and the design for extreme loading. The text is generously illustrated and supported by numerical examples and will be of great interest to practising engineers and researchers in structural, civil and design engineering and also to architects. The author has drawn on his experience as a teacher, researcher and consultant.

Book Experimental study of active control of MDOF structures under seismic excitations

Download or read book Experimental study of active control of MDOF structures under seismic excitations written by L. L. Chung and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Active control of building structures has been extensively studied theoretically using a variety of control schemes showing varying degrees of efficiency. The demand for experimental evidence of feasibility of control of structures subjected to severe transient loads led to the present study. Structural control experiments were carried out in the laboratory using a 1:4 scaled model structure simulating a three-story frame building. The control experiments were performed using a system of prestressing tendons connected to a servo-hydraulic system and linear optimal control algorithms. The model was subjected to base motions produced by a 12' by 12' shaking table, which included banded white noise and earthquake accelerograms. Results of the experiments show clearly that traditional algorithms can be implemented when proper adjustments are made. These include compensations for time delay and error accumulation in the online computation. Several new algorithms based on instantaneous optimal control were experimentally verified in this study, following new developments based on previous experiments involving single-degree-of-freedom structures. The efficiency of various algorithms is discussed along with comparisons of analytical and experimental results."--Abstract
