Popis: In this paper, we investigate the design of distributed damping systems (DDSs) for the overall seismic protection of multiple adjacent buildings. The considered DDSs contain interstory dampers implemented inside the buildings and also interbuilding damping links. The design objectives include mitigating the buildings seismic response by reducing the interstory-drift and story-acceleration peak-values and producing small interbuilding approachings to decrease the risk of interbuilding collisions. Designing high-performance DDS configurations requires determining convenient damper positions and computing proper values for the damper parameters. That allocation-tuning optimization problem can pose serious computational difficulties for large-scale multibuilding systems. The design methodology proposed in this work&mdash
(i) is based on an effective matrix formulation of the damped multibuilding system
(ii) follows an H &infin
approach to define an objective function with fast-evaluation characteristics
(iii) exploits the computational advantages of the current state-of-the-art genetic algorithm solvers, including the usage of hybrid discrete-continuous optimization and parallel computing
and (iv) allows setting actuation schemes of particular interest such as full-linked configurations or nonactuated buildings. To illustrate the main features of the presented methodology, we consider a system of five adjacent multistory buildings and design three full-linked DDS configurations with a different number of actuated buildings. The obtained results confirm the flexibility and effectiveness of the proposed design approach and demonstrate the high-performance characteristics of the devised DDS configurations.
