Influence of Masonry Infills Walls on the Seismic Behaviour of Multi-storey Waffle Slabs Rc Buildings

In this work, we analyze the influence of masonry infill walls on the seismic performance of waffle slabs reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures. We analyze buildings of three, five and eight storeys, which are representative for a big number of housings in Barcelona, Spain. Capacity spectra have been obtained by performing pushover analyses and we have used a simplified procedure to obtain...

Fuzzy control systems design and analysis: a linear matrix inequality approach: Kazuo Tanaka and Hua O. Wang; Copyright John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2001, ISBN: 0-471-32324-1

In this chapter, a class of nonlinear time-delay systems based on the TakagiŽ . w x Sugeno T-S fuzzy model is defined 1 . We investigate the delay-independent stability of this model. A model-based fuzzy stabilization design utilizing Ž . the concept of parallel distributed compensation PDC is employed. The main idea of the controller design is to derive each control rule to compensate each rul...
