Abstract
The paper deals with gray box identification of flexible structures and active vibration suppression from a robust control perspective. First, the linearized mathematical model of an Nβstorey flexible structure is presented. Next, the generalized mathematical model is particularized for the investigated threeβstorey flexible structure. The considered flexible structure is identified based on black box and gray box identification methods and the model's parametric uncertainties are deduced. Furthermore, control constraints are presented for the design problem, in case of velocity as well as acceleration feedback, from a robust control perspective. Finally, the effectiveness of the control system is tested through experiments, when the input disturbance is assumed to be a sinusoidal one as well as a historical earthquake record (1940 El Centro record).

Vibrations in structures can lead to a number of problems, not the least of which can be fatigue failures from excessive long term cyclic stresses. Passive techniques for vibration control, though sometimes limited in their capabilities, have been the primary method used in the past to attenuate vib
