چکیده
This paper presents a new approach to reducing the seismic responses of spatial structures with magneto-rheological (MR) dampers using Genetic Algorithm with small populations (μGA). μGA is used to obtain the controller for the MR dampers for structural vibration reduction that is difficult to be solved by the classical optimal control. The advantages of μGA are of global property and having little requirement of the conditions of the optimal function. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in reducing the responses of structure to earthquake ground motions.

The Sirri jacket offshore platform was designed and installed in Persian gulf of Iran in 1975 and has been in service since that time. The importance of offshore structure's stability and the failure of this kind of structure during an earthquake in different active zones revealed that earthquake loading has to be considered. In this paper, Magnetorheological (MR) fluid dampers have been propos...
متن کاملHierarchical semi-active control of base-isolated structures using a new inverse model of magnetorheological dampers
Magnetorheological (MR) dampers have received special attention as semi-active devices for mitigation of structural vibrations. Because of the inherent nonlinearity of these devices, it is difficult to obtain a reasonable mathematical inverse model. This paper is concerned with two related concepts. On one hand, it presents a new inverse model of MR dampers based on the normalized Bouc–Wen mode...
