Experimental Study on the Vibration Control for Building Structures using LQG Compensator

To control the motion of building structures under earthquakes their response should be measured first by various sensors and transformed into the control forces using some control algorithms. Of many control algorithms linear quadratic control is widely used as it is easy to implement and analyze. However the algorithms has the disadvantage that it needs the real-time measurements of all state variables(i.e, building's displacements and velocities) which are difficult to achieve for the building structures under earthquakes. Thus the practical algorithms employing output feedback are developed. In this paper LQG algorithm is used for the control of the building model with an active mass driver. The building's acceleration is used to obtain the control gain and the Kalman filter gain. The LQG control strategy is verified with the experimental study on the one-storybuilding model equipped with the active mass driver. This paper demonstrates experimentally the efficacy of the LQG algorithm based on the active mass driver system in reducing the response of seismically excited buildings.
