In this paper, we present a robust adaptive backstepping output feedback controller for nonlinear systems perturbed by unmodelled dynamics and disturbances. Especially, backstepping technique with modular approach is used to separately design controller and identifier. The design of identifier is based on the observer-based scheme which possesses a strict passivity property of observer error system. We will use Switching-${\sigma}$ modification at the update law and the modified control law to attenuate the effects of undodelled dynamics and disturbances for nonlinear systems.

The daily inflow is apparently one of nonlinear and complicated phenomena. The nonlinear and complexity make it difficult to model the prediction of daily flow, but attractive to try the neural networks approach which contains inherently nonlinear schemes. The study focuses on developing the forecasting models of daily inflows to a large dam site using neural networks. In order to reduce the error caused by high or low outliers, the back propagation algorithm which is one of neural network structures is modified by combining a regression algorithm. The study indicates that continuous forecasting of a reservoir inflow in real time is possible through the use of modified neural network models. The positive effect of the modification using tole regression scheme in BP algorithm is showed in the low and high ends of inflows.

This paper investigates inelastic seismic demands of the normal component of near-fault pulse-like ground motions, which differ considerably from those of far-fault ground motions and also parallel component of near-fault ones. The results are utilized to improve the nonlinear static procedure (NSP) called Displacement Coefficient Method (DCM). 96 near-fault and 20 far-fault ground motions and the responses of various single degree of freedom (SDOF) systems constitute the dataset. Nonlinear Dynamic Analysis (NDA) is utilized as the benchmark for comparison with nonlinear static analysis results. Considerable influences of different faulting mechanisms are observed on inelastic seismic demands. The demands are functions of the strength ratio and also the pulse period to structural period ratio. Simple mathematical expressions are developed to consider the effects of near-fault motion and fault type on nonlinear responses. Modifications are presented for the DCM by introducing a near-fault modification factor, $C_N$. In locations, where the fault type is known, the modifications proposed in this paper help to obtain a more precise estimate of seismic demands in structures.

구조물의 내진설계는 일반적으로 설계시방서의 스펙트럼을 이용하여 이루어지고 있다. 각 시방서에서 제시된 스펙트럼은 여러지역에서 발생한 지진파들을 최대 지반가속도로 정규화하여 평탄한 응답을 구하였으며, 구조물의 특성에 따라 증감하여 사용하고 있다. 구조물은 지진하중에 의하여 소성변형을 보이고 있으며, 이러한 구조물의 소성변형 능력을 고려하여 설계시방서에서는 응답수정계수를 사용하고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 응답수정계수는 모든 구조물의 고유진동주기에 대하여 일정한 값으로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 각각의 지진파에 대하여 20개의 인공지진파을 작성하여 평탄한 응답스펙트럼을 구하였다. 구하여진 평균 응답 스펙트럼을 사용하여 구조물의 초기항복강도와 감쇠율의 효과를 측정하였으며, 회기분석을 통하여 내진설계시 각 구조물에 요구되는 변위연성도를 얻기 위한 강도계수를 추정하였다. 또한 현재 사용되고 있는 설계시방서의 응답수정계수를 구조물 고유진동주기의 함수로 나타내었다.

현행 내진설계에서 반응수정계수는 탄성 밑면전단력을 저감하여 설계하중 수준을 정의하기 위한 주요 계수로 사용되고 있다. 이제까지 반응수정계수는 공학자들의 경험적인 합의에 의하여 정성적으로 설계기준에 반영하고 있다. 구조시스템에서 반응수정계수와 접합부의 가용 회전능력은 매우 밀접한 관계가 있으며, 본 논문에서는 이러한 접합부의 회전능력과 비선형 푸쉬오버 해석에 기초하여 반응수정계수를 평가하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이를 검증하기 위하여 IBC 2000에 따라 설계된 R3S 골조를 대상으로 제안 방법을 적용하였다. 또한, 다양한 지진파에 대한 비선형 시간이력 해석을 병행하여 가용 회전능력에 의거하여 산정된 반응수정계수의 타당성을 평가한 결과, 본 제안방법에 따라 정의된 반응수정계수가 충분히 보수적임을 확인하였다.

In this paper, Simple Adaptive Control (SAC) is used to enhance the seismic response of nonlinear tall buildings based on acceleration feedback. Semi-active MR dampers are employed as control actuator due to their reliability and well-known dynamic models. Acceleration feedback is used because of availability, cost-efficiency and reliable measurements of acceleration sensors. However, using acceleration feedback in the control loop causes the structure not to apparently meet some requirements of the SAC algorithm. In addition to defining an appropriate SAC reference model and using inherently stable MR dampers, a modification in the original structure of the SAC is proposed in order to improve its adaptability to the situation in which the plant does not satisfy the algorithm's stability requirements. To investigate the performance of the developed control system, a numerical study is conducted on the benchmark 20-story nonlinear building and the responses of the SAC-controlled structure are compared to an $H_2/LQG$ clipped-optimal controller under the effect of different seismic excitations. As indicated by the results, SAC controller effectively reduces the story drifts and hence the seismically-induced damage throughout the structural members despite its simplicity, independence of structural parameters and while using fewer number of dampers in contrast with the $H_2/LQG$ clipped-optimal controller.

This paper presents how nonlinear PID control algorithms can be applied on chemical processes for a more stable operation and perfect automation. A pass balance controller is designed to balance the exiting temperatures of a heater and a heat exchange network. The proposed controller has gain-varying integral action and deals with the operational constraints in an efficient manner. Also, the use of a PID gap controller is proposed to maximize energy saving and operation stability and to minimize operator intervention in operation of air fan coolers. The proposed controller adjusts the opening of a louver automatically in such a way that it keeps the air fan pitch position within the desired range. All these nonlinear PID controllers have been implemented on the distributed control system (DCS) for good reliability and operability. Operator acceptance was very high and the implemented controllers have shown good performance and high service factor still now on. The proposed methodology can be directly applied to similar processes without any modification.

Oil, hysteretic and inertial mass dampers are representatives of passive dampers used for smart enhancement of seismic performance of building structures. Since oil dampers have a nonlinear relief mechanism and hysteretic dampers possess nonlinear restoring-force characteristics, several difficulties arise in the evaluation of buildings including such dampers. The purpose of this paper is to propose a practical method for simultaneous optimal use of such dampers. The optimum design problem is formulated so as to minimize the maximum interstory drift under design earthquakes in terms of a set of damper quantities subject to an equality constraint on the total cost of dampers. The proposed method to solve the optimum design problem is a successive procedure which consists of two steps. The first step is a sensitivity analysis by using nonlinear time-history response analyses, and the second step is a modification of the set of damper quantities based upon the sensitivity analysis. Numerical examples are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness and validity of the proposed design method.

Based on the nonlinear static analysis and the approximate seismic evaluation method adopted in "Guidelines for seismic performance evaluation for existing buildings, two methods to calculate strength demand for retrofitting individual structural walls in unreinforced masonry buildings are proposed." The displacement coefficient method to determine displacement demand from nonlinear static analysis results is used for the inverse calculation of overall strength demand required to reduce the displacement demand to a target value meeting the performance objective of the unreinforced masonry building to retrofit. A preliminary seismic evaluation method to screen out vulnerable buildings, of which detailed evaluation is necessary, is utilized to calculate overall strength demand without structural analysis based on the difference between the seismic demand and capacity. A system modification factor is introduced to the preliminary seismic evaluation method to reduce the strength demand considering inelastic deformation. The overall strength demand is distributed to the structural walls to retrofit based on the wall stiffness, including the remaining walls or otherwise. Four detached residential houses are modeled and analyzed using the nonlinear static and preliminary evaluation procedures to examine the proposed method.

연성 계수는 반응수정계수(R)의 핵심구성요소로서 내진설계에서 중요한 역할을 하는 계수이다. 본 연구에서의 연성계수()는 단자유도 구조물의 연성계수()에 다자유도 보정계수()를 곱하여 평가하였다. 단자유도 시스템의 연성계수는 지진하중을 받는 단자유도 구조물의 변위 연성요구도와 주기에 따른 비선형 동적해석으로부터 산정하였다. 다자유도 시스템의 영향을 고려하기 위한 다자유도 보정계수()는 기존의 연구에 근거하여 제시하였다. 철골 연성 모멘트 골조의 연성계수를 평가하기 위하여, 구조물의 층수, 골조시스템(외곽골조, 분배골조), 붕괴 메카니즘(강-기둥 약-보, 약-기둥 강-보), 토질조건 및 지진구역을 변수로 하여 총 108개의 예제 구조물을 설계하였다. 구조물의 층수, 붕괴 메카니즘 및 토질조건은 연성계수에 큰 영향을 미치는 반면, 골조 시스템 및 지진구역은 연성계수에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
