| Summary: | In the recent years many techniques has been developed to reduce the vibration response in civil structure, such as tall buildings and long bridges. Attention of this paper is focused on the difference among passive, active and semi-active control systems. If passive control systems are used enhancing structural damping, stiffness or strength, the other control techniques employ controllable forces to add or dissipate, or both, energy in a structure due to the specific devices integrated with sensors, controllers and real-time processes to operating. Some applications will be proposed and applied to single degree of freedom systems in vertical working conditions. |
