Active-passive control strategy for adjacent buildings
Palacios-Quiñonero, Francisco; Rossell, Josep M.; Rodellar, José; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)In this paper, a control strategy to mitigate the vibrational response of adjacent buildings under seismic excitation is presented. The proposed strategy combines inter-building passive actuators with active actuators ... -
Active-passive decentralized H∞ control for adjacent buildings under seismic excitation
Palacios-Quiñonero, F.; Rossell, Josep M.; Rodellar, J.; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)In this paper, a control strategy to reduce the vibrational response of adjacent buildings under seismic excitation is presented. The proposed strategy combines passive linking elements with an active decentralized H∞ ... -
Discrete-time multioverlapping controller design for structural vibration control of tall buildings under seismic excitation
Palacios-Quiñonero, Francisco; Rubió-Massegú, Josep; Rossell, Josep M.; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)In this paper, a computationally effective strategy to obtain multioverlapping controllers via the Inclusion Principle is applied to design discrete-time state-feedback multioverlapping LQR con- trollers for seismic ... -
Feedback vibration control of a base-isolated building with delayed measurements using h∞ techniques
Karimi, Hamid Reza; Zapateiro, Mauricio; Luo, Ningsu; Rossell, Josep M. (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2010)n this paper we address the problem of vibration reduction of buildings with delayed measurements, where the delays are time-varying and bounded. We focus on a convex optimization approach to the problem of state-feedback ... -
Landing gear suspension control through adaptive backstepping techniques with H∞ performance
Zapateiro, Mauricio; Pozo, Francesc; Rossell, Josep M.; Karimi, Hamid Reza; Luo, Ningsu (Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)Landing gear suspension systems fulfill the tasks of absorbing the vertical energy of the touch-down as well as providing passenger and crew comfort with a smooth ground ride before take-off and after landing. They are ... -
Optimal design of complex passive-damping systems for vibration control of large structures: An energy-to-peak approach
Palacios-Quiñonero, Francisco; Rubió-Massegú, Josep; Rossell, Josep M.; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)We present a new design strategy that makes it possible to synthesize decentralized output-feedback controllers by solving two successive optimization problems with linear matrix inequality (LMI) constraints. In the initial ... -
Recent advances in static output-feedback controller design with applications to vibration control of large structures
Palacios-Quiñonero, Francisco; Rubió-Massegú, Josep; Rossell, Josep M.; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)In this paper, we present a novel two-step strategy for static output-feedback controller design. In the first step, an optimal state-feedback controller is obtained by means of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) formulation. ... -
Semi-decentralized strategies in structural vibration control
Palacios-Quiñonero, Francisco; Rossell, Josep M.; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)In this work, the main ideas involved in the design of overlapping and multi-overlapping controllers via the Inclusion Principle are discussed and illustrated in the context of the Structural Vibration Control of tall ... -
Structural vibration control for a class of connected multistructure mechanical systems
Palacios-Quiñonero, Francisco; Rossell, Josep M.; Rubió-Massegú, Josep; Karimi, Hamid Reza (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)A mathematical model to compute the overall vibrational response of connected multistructure mechanical systems is presented. Using the proposed model, structural vibration control strategies for seismic protection of ...
