Recently, the adaptive nonlinear static analysis method has been widely used in the field of performance based earthquake engineering. However, the proposed methods are almost deterministic and cannot directly consider the seismic record uncertainties. In the current study an innovative Stochastic Adaptive Pushover Analysis, called "SAPA", based on equivalent hysteresis system responses is developed to consider the earthquake record to record uncertainties. The methodology offers a direct stochastic analysis which estimates the seismic demands of the structure in a probabilistic manner. In this procedure by using a stochastic linearization technique in each step, the equivalent hysteresis system is analyzed and the probabilistic characteristics of the result are obtained by which the lateral force pattern is extracted and the actual structure is pushed. To compare the results, three different types of analysis have been considered; conventional pushover methods, incremental dynamic analysis, IDA, and the SAPA method. The result shows an admirable accuracy in predicting the structure responses.

Negative stiffness dampers (NSDs) have been proven an efficient solution to vibration control of stay cables. Although previous studies usually assumed a linear negative stiffness behavior of NSDs, many negative stiffness devices produce negative stiffness with nonlinear behavior. This paper systematically evaluates the impact of nonlinearity in negative stiffness on vibration control performance for stay cables. A linearization method based on energy equivalent principle is proposed, and subsequently, the impact of two types of nonlinear stiffness, namely, displacement hardening and softening stiffness, is evaluated. Through the Hilbert transform (HT) of free vibration responses, the effects of nonlinear stiffness of an NSD on the modal frequencies, damping ratios and frequency response functions of a stay cable is also investigated. The HT analysis results validate the accuracy of the linearization method.

The problem we consider in this paper is more demanding than the problem of input-output linearization with state equivalence recently solved by Cheng, Isidori, Respondek, and Tarn. We request that the MIMO nonlinear system, for which the problem of input-output linearization with state-equivalence is solvable, can be decoupled. In exchange for further requirement like this, our problem produces more usable and informative results than the problem of input-output linearization with state-equivalence. We present the necessary and sufficient conditions for our problem to be solvable. We characterize each of the nonlinear systems satisfying these conditions by a set of parameters which are invariant under the group action of state feedback and transformation. Using this set of parameters, we can determine directly the unique one, among the canonical forms of decouplable and controllable linear systems, to which a nonlinear system can be transformed via appropriate state feedback and transformation. Finally, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions for our problem to be solvable with internal stability, that is, for stable decoupling.

본 연구에서는 다자유도계에 국부적으로 존재하는 비선형요소의 위치를 파악 하는 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 기존의 등가선형화법으로 구한 등 가행렬에 비선형요소의 위치정보가 포함되어 있음을 밝혔다. 또한 등가행렬에 포함 된 위치정보를 효과적으로 이용하기 위하여 오차행렬법과 오차벡터법을 제시하였다. 제시된 두 방법이 계에 존재하는 국부 비선형요소의 위치파악에 적합한 방법임을 시뮬 레이션을 통하여 검증하였다. 특히 오차벡터법은 비선형요소의 연결상태 및 비선형 성 정도를 파악할 수 있는 방법으로 비선형계의 모델수립에 유용한 도구임을 보였다. 그리고 특수한 경우에는 등가선형화법으로 구한 등가 감쇠 및 등가 강성계수를 응답에 대하여 그래프로 표시하면 그 비선형 형태를 대략적으로 파악할 수 있음을 밝히고 시 뮬레이션으로 검증하였다.

This paper presents the investigation of the stochastic responses of seismically isolated bridges subjected to spatially varying earthquake ground motions including incoherence, wave-passage and site-response effects. The incoherence effect is examined by considering Harichandran and Vanmarcke coherency model. The effect of the wave-passage is dealt with various wave velocities in the response analysis. Homogeneous firm, medium and soft soil conditions are selected for considering the site-response effect where the bridge supports are constructed. The ground motion is described by filtered white noise and applied to each support points. For seismic isolation of the bridge, single and double concave friction pendulum bearings are used. Due to presence of friction on the concave surfaces of the isolation systems, the equation of motion of is non-linear. The non-linear equation of motion is solved by using equivalent linearization technique of non-linear stochastic analyses. Solutions obtained from the stochastic analyses of non-isolated and isolated bridges to spatially varying earthquake ground motions compared with each other for the special cases of the ground motion model. It is concluded that friction pendulum systems having single and double concave surfaces have important effects on the stochastic responses of bridges to spatially varying earthquake ground motions.

When the friction pendulum system and shear keys work together to resist the ground motion, which inclined inputs (non 45°) to the bridge structure, the shear keys in XY direction will be sheared asynchronously, endowed the friction pendulum system with a violent curvilinear motion on the sliding surface during earthquakes. In view of this situation, firstly, this paper abandons the equivalent linearization model of friction and constructs a Spring-Coulomb friction plane isolation system with XY shear keys, and then makes a detailed mechanical analysis of the movement process of friction pendulum system, next, this paper establishes the mathematical model of structural time history response calculation by using the step-by-step integration method, finally, it compiles the corresponding computer program to realize the numerical calculation. The results show that the calculation method in this paper takes advantage of the characteristic that the friction force is always µmg, and creatively uses the "circle making method" to express the change process of the friction force and resultant force of the friction pendulum system in any calculation time step, which can effectively solve the temporal nonlinear action of the plane friction; Compared with the response obtained by the calculation method in this paper, the peak values of acceleration response and displacement response calculated by the unidirectional calculation model, which used in the traditional research of the friction pendulum system, are smaller, so the unidirectional calculation model is not safe.

Due to the nonlinearity and complexity of the three-phase photovoltaic inverter, we propose an intelligent control based on fuzzy logic and the classical proportional-integral-derivative. The feedback linearization method is applied to cancel the nonlinearities, and transform the dynamic system into a simple and linear subsystem. The system is transformed from abc frame to dq0 synchronous frame, to simplify the state feedback linearization law, and make the close-loop dynamics in the equivalent linear model. The controls improve the dynamic response, efficiency and stability of the three-phase photovoltaic grid system, under variable temperature, solar intensity, and load. The intelligent control of the nonlinear characteristic of the photovoltaic automatically varies the coefficients $K_p$, $K_i$, and $K_d$ under variable temperature and irradiation, and eliminates the oscillation. The simulation results show the advantages of the proposed intelligent control in terms of the correctness, stability, and maintenance of its response, which from many aspects is better than that of the PID controller.

This paper presents a robust position tracking controller for motor-driven flexible joint manipulators using only the motor angle measurement. The control problem is not easy because the link position is hard to estimate in the presence of parameter uncertainties. The proposed controller consists of a feedback linearization controller (FLC) and two proportional-integral observers (PIOs) that estimate both system states including the link position and an equivalent disturbance for compensating the parameter uncertainties. Comparative computer simulations are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.
