β¦ Synopsis
An Active Mass Driver (AMD) system is proposed to suppress actively the response of a building to irregular external excitations such as earthquakes and typhoons.' This system has been introduced to an actual ten-storey office building constructed in Tokyo in August, 1989. The proposed analytical methods utilize circuits of the system and mechanical characteristics to understand the real control effect of the system. Simulation analyses are also performed to verify the analytical model and the control effect during observed earthquakes.

## Abstract This study investigates an electricβtype active mass driver (AMD) system for structural vibration control. Composed primarily of an electric servomotor and a ball screw, the electrical AMD system is free from noise problems, oil leakage, and laborβintensive maintenance that commonly are
This paper presents the overview and problem definition for a benchmark structural control problem. The structure considered-chosen because of the widespread interest in this class of systems\-is a scale model of a three-storey building employing an active mass driver. A model for this structural sy
