Various structural health monitoring techniques have been developed over the years. Due to
the lack of a common platform to test the efficiency of these methods, the damage analysis …

Presented herein is a study of the effectiveness of suspended lead dampers for use in steel
buildings under a localized impact load and a vertical pulsating load. A series of lead …

Precise forecast of strong nonlinear behaviors of magnetorheological energy absorber
(MREA) plays a significant role in its semi-active control and engineering applications. This …

Semi-active train-car suspensions are always impacted negatively by uncertainty and
disturbance (UAD). In order to deal with this, we propose a novel optimal fuzzy disturbance …

This article presents a review of the recent applications of artificial neural networks (ANN) for
civil infrastructure including structural system identification, structural health monitoring …

Vibration control systems using smart dampers (SmDs) such as magnetorheological and
electrorheological dampers (MRD and ERD), which are classified as the integrated structure …

A new kind of rapid structural damage detection method is proposed based on structural
dynamic vibration data, which can be used to fast assess structural fault for short-term …

A magnetorheological energy absorber (MREA) is a promising actuator for vibration and
shock mitigation due to its continuous and controllable damping force. To take full …

A magnetorheological (MR) damper is a promising appliance for semi-active suspension
systems, due to its capability of damping undesired movement using an adequate control …

This paper proposes fuzzy models for forecasting the complex behavior of algal blooms. The
models are developed through the integration of autoregressive models, the Takagi-Sugeno …
