Abstract:This paper studied the seismic response control of structural building with stiffness irregularities through active tendon system (ATS) using Linear Quadratic Regulator control algorithm. The various responses considered are the floor displacements, story drifts, and base shear. The optimal number and the optimal position of these active tendons are obtained through multiobjective optimization using Genetic Algorithm to reduce the responses and the cost of the control system simultaneously. The conflicting o… Show more
