Optimal placement of sensors on buildings subjected to intermediate storey excitation according to QN control method.

An algorithm to calculate direct velocity feedback gain with limited number of sensors is developed in a simple way such that a certain performance index is minimized according to QN control method. If a limited number of velocity outputs can be measured, full velocity responses of the whole structu...
