Instantaneous Stochastic Optimal Control of Seismically Excited Structures Based on Time Domain Explicit Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new instantaneous stochastic optimal control (ISO) for the linear building structures subjected to non-stationary random excitations is proposed. A plane shear structure is taken as the example to illustrate the proposed method. The main advantage of the method is that the control force is easy to be calculated because the expression of the control force is independent of the state of the system.
