Paper Abstract
An integrated system of structural control and health monitoring can be implemented in modern smart structures with
multi-purpose sensor system. The integration system not only promotes the reliability of the smart structure but also
provides information on the condition of the smart structure. However, the on-line implementation of structural control
and evaluation of a large scale structure are difficult due to the complicated calculation with large mass, damping and
stiffness matrices. Moreover, the reliability of the structural control and evaluation results will also reduce in a large
scale structural system during severe earthquake with centralized control system. In this paper, a new combined system
of adaptive structural control and structural evaluation is proposed. The structural control system is implemented with
the LQG control and the pseudo negative stiffness (PNS) control both are effective control methods for the vibration
mitigation of structures. The structural control is adaptive with the updating of the structural parameters of the system via
the structural evaluation system. A modified adaptive regularization method is used in the solution of the structural
evaluation via model updating. The combination of the structural control and evaluation is designed as autonomous and
decentralized to guarantee the reliability under the harsh environmental excitation. The autonomous decentralized control
system explores a new substructure method which is more efficient in calculation with smaller mass, damping and
stiffness matrices for the structural evaluation. The proposed integrated system is implemented and verified through
numerical simulation of a 16-storey planar shear frame subject to seismic ground motion.
