Seismic response control using smart dampers

Presents the results of a numerical study conducted to demonstrate the capabilities of multiple magnetorheological (MR) devices for seismic control of civil engineering structures when used in conjunction with a clipped optimal control algorithm. The study employs an identified model of the integrat...
