Abstract

An active bracing system has been designed, fabricated, and installed in a full-scale dedicated test structure for structural response control under seismic loads. Presented in this paper are the design of the active system, control algorithm development, and simulated as well as preliminary test results. Detailed design and analysis of the active system are carried out with respect to hardware development, control force constraints, and power and energy requirements. It is shown that a full-scale efficient active structural control system can be developed within limits of current technology. Simulation and test results provide information on performance bounds that can be expected of active systems in structural control under seismic loads and under constraints imposed by practical considerations.
