Optimal Placement of Passive Energy Dissipation Devices by Genetic Algorithms
A mathematical model is proposed in this paper for locating optimal positions for passive energy dissipative dampers. Three control indices of structural responses with the storey-drift angle, storey displacement, and acceleration are taken in this model. Firstly, six combination modes of these indi...
