Fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) have shown their efficiency as energy-dissipating systems,
reducing the effects induced on structures by dynamic loading conditions like earthquakes …

Featured Application The discussion in this article could be used as a literature study on the
application of semi-active damping to building structures in general and the application of …

This study proposes a novel variable universe fuzzy control design for vehicle semi-active
suspension system with magnetorheological (MR) damper through the combination of fuzzy …

Urban cities worldwide are filled with low‐rise to high‐rise buildings which may be
vulnerable to both earthquake and wind excitations depending on their locations. Here, the …

To effectively suppress the horizontal vibration of a high-speed elevator car caused by
uncertainties such as the irregularity of guide rails and the piston wind in the hoistway, this …

Abstract Tuned Liquid Dampers (TLDs) are dissipative devices whose distinguished
features like low cost in installation and maintenance or their multidirectional and …

In most cases, the standard optimization algorithms are capable of identifying the required
number of parameters for a specific design problem; however, this process is difficult and …

Magnetorheological (MR) damper is one of the most advanced applications of semi active
damper in controlling vibration. Due to its continuous controllability in both on and off state …

In this paper, a road-frequency adaptive control for semi-active suspension systems is
investigated. The control aims to improve the vehicle suspension performance (ride comfort …

Vibration suppression is considered as a key research field in civil engineering to ensure the
safety and comfort of their occupants and users of mechanical structures. To reduce the …
