In this paper, both a sliding mode controller (SMC) and proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller are designed for a multi-degrees-of-freedom structure, which has an active mass damper (AMD) to suppress earthquakeor wind-induced vibration. Since the model might have uncertainties and/or parameter changes, a SMC has been included because of its robust character and performance. The structural system has five degrees of freedom and has been simulated against an initial displacement of the first floor. At the end of the paper, we present the time histories of the first floor, top floor, and AMD displacements, the control voltage and frequency response of the uncontrolled, PID controlled, and sliding mode controlled structures, and we discuss the results.

The building structural vibration control by an active mass damper (AMD) with delayed acceleration feedback is studied. The control is designed with a multi-objective optimal approach. The stable region in a parameter space of the control gain and time delay is obtained by using the method of stability switch and the numerical code of NDDEBIFTOOL. The control objectives include the setting time, total power consumption, peak time, and the maximum power. The multi-objective optimization problem (MOP) for the control design is solved with the simple cell mapping (SCM) method. The Pareto set and Pareto front are found to consist of two clusters. The first cluster has negative feedback gains, i.e., the positive acceleration feedback. We have shown that a proper time delay can enhance the vibration suppression with controls from the first cluster. The second cluster has positive feedback gains and is located in the region which is sensitive to time delay. A small time delay will deteriorate the control performance in this cluster. Numerical simulations and experiments are carried out to demonstrate the analytical findings.
