Abstract
As a kind of large flexible structure, high-rise buildings need to consider wind-resistant and anti-seismic problems for the safety of occupants and properties, especially in coastal areas. This article proposes an infinite dimensional model and an adaptive boundary control law for an active mass damper (AMD) on this question. The dynamic model of the high-rise building is a combination of some storeys which have flexible walls and rigid floors under a series of physical conditions. Then the adaptive boundary controller is acted on an AMD which is equipped on the top floor, in order to suppress the vibration of every floor and guarantee the comfort of residents. Moreover, simulations and experiments are carried out on a two-floor flexible building to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
