Actual seismic response controlled building with semi-active damper system

This paper presents the first application of a semi-active damper system to an actual building. The Semi-active Hydraulic Damper (SHD) can produce a maximum damping force of 1000 kN with an electric power of 70 W. It is compact, so a large number of them can be installed in a single building. It is thus possible to control the building's response during a severe earthquake, because a large control force is obtained in comparison with a conventional active control system. This paper outlines the building, the control system configuration, the SHD, the control method using a Linear Quadratic Regulator, the response analysis results of the controlled building, and the dynamic loading test results of the actual SHD. The simulation analysis shows that damage to buildings can be prevented in a severe earthquake by SHD control. The dynamic loading test results of the SHD are reported, which show that the specified design values were obtained in the basic characteristic test. The control performance test using simulated response time histories, also shows that the damping force agrees well with the command. Finally, it is confirmed that the semi-active damper system applied to an actual building effectively controls its response in severe earthquakes. Copyright © 1999 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.     

泥河湾盆地大长梁剖面河湖相沉积序列的细腰磁滞回线性质及其环境意义

对华北泥河湾盆地大长梁剖面更新世河湖相沉积序列进行的多参数岩石磁学研究表明磁铁矿和赤铁矿是大长梁剖面最主要的磁性矿物.磁铁矿的粒度主要为准单畴和多畴,主要来自盆地周围侵蚀的碎屑矿物;赤铁矿主要为风成成因,来源于中国西北部的黄土高原或沙漠地区的化学风化作用产物;某些沉积层中还含有主要由碎屑成因的粗颗粒磁铁矿经低温氧化形成的磁赤铁矿,该过程可能与泥河湾古湖的氧化环境演化密切相关.大长梁剖面的磁滞回线大多具有细腰特征,细腰的明显程度主要由样品中磁铁矿和赤铁矿的相对贡献控制.因此,细腰磁滞回线可以用来衡量泥河湾河湖相沉积物中赤铁矿的相对含量,并进而在一定程度上指示亚洲内陆干旱/半干旱地区化学风化作用的强弱以及相对温湿或冷干的气候环境变化.

Alkaline phosphatase as a bio-indicator of phosphorus-eutrophy in freshwater ecosystems: A review

Limnologists have greatly advanced the understanding of indicators of phosphorus(P)-eutrophy in surface waters. Biotic variables such as macro-invertebrates, fish, zooplankton, benthic algae, and diatoms are extensively used for bio-assessment of eutrophy. New concepts highlight the importance of bed-sediment based “response” variables predicting functional shifts during eutrophication. A cross analysis of studies reveals that alkaline phosphatase(ALP), which serves as a proxy of P-deficiency, a...

TIME-DELAY EFFECT AND ITS SOLUTION FOR OPTIMAL OUTPUT FEEDBACK CONTROL OF STRUCTURES

This paper investigates the stability of MDOF optimal direct output feedback control systems through analysis of system modal properties after the application of time-delayed control force. Explicit formula and numerical solution are obtained to determine the maximum delay time and critical delay time which cause system instability and control ineffectiveness, respectively. The results indicate that direct velocity feedback has longer maximum and critical delay times than state feedback. The feedback of non-collocated measurements will reduce maximum delay time. The ratios of maximum and critical delay times to structural natural period decrease as the active damping increases. For a given damped structure, a critical control weighting factor exists. When a larger control weighting factor is used, the control system will remain stable even with longer delay time. A formula is also developed to determine the critical control weighting factor so as to make the stability of MDOF control systems dominated by lower modes. Hence, the maximum delay time and critical delay time can be significantly lengthened by selecting an appropriate control weighting factor and/or adding higher modal dampings.
