Hysteresis is a nonlinear phenomenon observed in the dynamic response behavior of numerous structural systems under high intensity cyclic or random loading, as well as in numerous mechanical and electromagnetic systems. For several decades, hysteretic response analysis of structural systems has been widely studied and numerous hysteresis models have been proposed and utilized in order to reproduce and better understand the complex hysteretically degrading behavior of structural systems. An important area of research in this regard has been the parameter identification of hysteretic systems. In this paper, we propose a modified Prandtl–Ishlinskii model to simulate the asymmetric hysteresis, which is the complex behavior in structural systems. In addition, a new approach based on particle swarm optimization and least-mean square algorithm is utilized for parameter identification of this hysteresis model. Finally, the model is applied in structural dynamic response analysis of a base isolated structural model under seismic load.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
