Chapter
Type-2 Fuzzy PD/PID Control of Structures
Fuzzy logic has obtained many attentions in control of structure because of its simple nature, robustness, and nonlinear map** capability (Choi et al., Int J Solids Struct 42(16–17):4779–4794, [1]). Reigles and...

Bidirectional PD/PID Control of Structures
The role of the structural control is to minimize the vibrations of the buildings under the effect of bidirectional earthquake via an effective external control force. In an active control system, it is essent...
