Abstract

"The hybrid damper actuator bracing control (HDABC) system is studied with the intelligent strategy for earthquake resistance of building structures. This research includes finding the effects of soil structure interaction (SSI) on structural control, development of the strategy algorithm, probability analysis of control performance, and methods of estimating the control force magnitudes. This study uses not only existing earthquake records, but also future ground motions generated based on tectonic movements"--Abstract, page iv.
