Abstract:This study introduces enhancements for nonlinear substructuring control (NLSC) to achieve simultaneous control of acceleration and displacement in shake table substructuring experiments with severely damaged structures. Although shake table control is greatly affected by a specimen placed on its top and its nonlinear characteristics, accurate control, even with nonlinear characteristics, is essential for experimental purposes. The NLSC was developed for a dynamically substructured system (DSS) scheme involving… Show more
