Meta heuristic active and semi-active control systems of high-rise building

Abstract

This study focuses on the application of dampers installed in a structure to control the seismic responses of the building. Fuzzy logic controller is applied to estimate control force and voltage of ATMD and MR damper. To find out a suitable fuzzy logic controller which reduces the responses of structure, it is essential to tune membership functions, extract appropriate rule base. The dynamic parameters of TMD is very effective to decrease the responses of structure. The observer-teacher-learner-based optimisation (OTLBO) algorithm is used to optimise TMD parameters and fuzzy logic controller. The results show that the optimised models by this algorithm can effectively decrease the peak seismic response of the building.
