Active variable stiffness system with non-resonant control.

Active variable stiffness system with non-resonant control.

The active variable stiffness (AVS) system is proposed as a seismic response control system. It actively controls structural stiffness of a building to establish a non-resonant state against earthquake excitations, thus suppressing the building's response. It consumes a relatively small amount...
