Based on the LQR control algorithm the control effectiveness for transverse vibration of pier-beam structure of bridge are discussed. Taking the structure as a multiple-degree of freedom system, the calculating model of structure-variable damper system is set up and the differential equation is derived, combined with practical example the control system is simulated and studied by various semi-active control algorithms and passive strategy with MATLAB. The results show that the semi-active control with variable damper can decrease the transverse vibration effectively and the control effect is obvious.展开更多

The modal control algorithm combining LQR(linear quadratic regulator) control algorithm is adopted in the discrete time-history analysis. The various modal energy forms are derived by definition of the generalized absolute displacement vector. A preliminary numerical study of the effectiveness of this control strategy is carried out on a 20-storey framed steel structural model. The controlled performance of the model is studied from the perspectives of both response and modal energy. Results show that the modal energy-based control strategy is very effective in reducing structural responses as well as in consuming a large amount of modal energy,while augmentation of additional generalized control force corresponding to the modes that contain little modal energy is unnecessary,as it does little help to improve the controlled structural performance.展开更多
