✦ Synopsis

In this work we give a methodology for controller design and analysis which accounts for design criteria such as: (a) optimal system response to external disturbances, (b) robustness to modelling uncertainty, and (c) constraints on the controller order. The methodology is applied to a structural control benchmark problem sponsored by the ASCE Committee on Structural Control. The structural system considered consists of a scale model of a three-storey building employing an active mass driver to suppress ground motion disturbances. The methodology proved effective for obtaining a satisfactory low-order controller for this class of problems.
