The Semi-Active Control Considering Structure-Basement-Pile-Soil Interaction

The interaction system which includes pi1e-supported tall buildings with multistoried basements and the adjacent medium of soil subject to the impact of earthquake is formulated in terms of the spline subdomain method,semi-analytical infinite element method and the bend-shear model of beam element,respectively.Taking advantage of the instantaneous optimal control algorithm, structure-basements-piles-soil interaction effect on the semi-active control is considered. It is shown that the results of structural control have obvious difference between the interaction system and the fixed-end system.The response of the former may be less about 10 percent than the latter in the paper.The dissipative capability of the structure self may be ignored largely if the interaction isn’t considered.When designing the system of the semi-active control, especially for some tall buildings,soil-structure interaction should be taken into consideration.
