Adaptive Gain Scheduled Semiactive Vibration Control Using a Neural Network by Kazuhiko Hiramoto, Taichi Matsuoka, Katsuaki Sunakoda

“…We propose an adaptive gain scheduled semiactive control method using an artificial neural network for structural systems subject to earthquake disturbance. In order to design a semiactive control system with high control performance against earthquakes with different time and/or frequency properties, multiple semiactive control laws with high performance for each of multiple earthquake disturbances are scheduled with an adaptive manner. …”
