Future Directions in Structural Control
Abstract eng: This paper focuses on the application of active, hybrid, and semi-active structural control systems to buildings. With the installation of an active mass driver system in the kyobashi Seiwa Building in Tokyo in 1989, Professor Kobori and his associates launched the active control movement. While there has been steady progress in Japan in terms of implementation of structural control devices in structures, this has not been the case in other countries. Based on what has been accomplished since 1989 and on personal experiences, personal views are presented in this paper concerning outlook of active structural control and pressing issues that must be addressed in order to further advance the concept of structural control as a cornerstone in modern structural engineering.
