An Efficient Global Optimization Approach for Reliability Maximization of Friction-Tuned Mass Damper-Controlled Structures
The application of optimization techniques to design passive energy dissipation devices of structures subject to seismic excitation has rapidly increased in the past decades. It is now widely acknowledged that uncertainties inherent to the earthquake loading and structural parameters must be taken i...
