Advanced seismic control strategies for smart base isolation buildings utilizing active tendon and MR dampers

Abstract

This paper investigates the seismic behaviour of a five-storey shear building that incorporates a base isolation system. Initially, the study considers passive base isolation and employs a multi-objective archived-based whale optimization algorithm called MAWOA to optimize the parameters of base isolation. Subsequently, a novel model is proposed, which incorporates an interval type-2 Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy logic controller (IT2TSFLC) utilizing clustering techniques. The building includes Magneto-rheological (MR) dampers installed at the base isolation level and two active tendons positioned on the first and second storeys of the structure. The semi-active control force of the base isolation with MR dampers is determined by the fuzzy system, while the active control force for the active tendons is computed using the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) algorithm, enabling control force provision during seismic events. The primary objective of this model is to enhance the seismic control of the building. Therefore, it is classified as a proposed model. The structural system is subjected to seismic analyses, considering three different structural configurations: uncontrolled, equipped with passive base isolation, and equipped with semi-active base isolation combining MR dampers and active tendons. The findings of the research demonstrate that by considering the optimization of parameters of the passive base isolation based on the white noise scenario and using these parameters as design parameters, during seismic analysis of the structure in some earthquakes, increased structural responses were observed when compared to uncontrolled structure, highlighting a potential risk. Nevertheless, the proposed system effectively addresses this drawback of passive control systems by markedly reducing structural responses, as compared to both passive base isolation and uncontrolled structure. These results suggest that the proposed system is an effective solution for mitigating seismic risks in structural seismic control.
