| dc.description.abstract | Major earthquakes in recent years have highlighted the big concern of modern seismic design concept for the resilience of buildings. The overall goals of this thesis aim to design structural vibration control using smart materials and devices and to elucidate the factors determining their robustness, feasibility, and adaptability for earthquake-resistant and resilient buildings. The study mainly includes a) integrated wavelet-based vibration control with damage detection; b) shape memory alloy to eliminate the residual deformations; c) a mass damper for highly irregular tall buildings; and d) soil-structure interaction effects on the buildings. The robustness, feasibility, and adaptability of these proposed studies for earthquake-resistant and resilient buildings are evaluated using various performance measures. The findings of the study reveal that the structural vibration control strategies could advance the current-of-art knowledge in seismic risk mitigation as well as high system adaptability. | en_US |
