An overview of research on the development of the hybrid test method is presented. The
maturity of the hybrid test method is mapped in order to provide context to individual …

Predicting complex structures' dynamic behavior is challenging, especially since full-scale
testing of structures subjected to natural hazards is not always possible. Testing individual …

Experimental testing is an essential tool for understanding how structures respond to
extreme events. Methods currently used to determine the behavior of structural systems …

This paper presents the problem definition and guidelines for a benchmark control problem
in real-time hybrid simulation for a seismically excited building, to appear in a Special Issue …

Tuned liquid dampers (TLDs) utilize the sloshing motion of the fluid to suppress structural
vibrations and become a natural candidate for vibration control of large flexible wind …

Compensation of delay and dynamic response of servo‐hydraulic actuators is critical for
stability and accuracy of hybrid experimental and numerical simulations of seismic response …

Real-time substructure testing is a method for establishing the dynamic behavior of structural
systems. The method separates a complex structure into physical and numerically modeled …

Real‐time dynamic substructuring is an experimental technique for testing the dynamic
behaviour of complex structures. It involves creating a hybrid model of the entire structure by …

Full–scale dynamic testing of civil engineering structures is extremely costly and difficult to
perform. Most test methods therefore involve either a reduction in the physical scale or an …

We developed an on–line experimental system for conducting hybrid experiments in real
time. It combines a computer, which conducts vibration simulation and generates a control …
