Abstract
An optimal placement of MR dampers using genetic algorithm (GA) is put forward in this paper in order to reduce the vibration responses of high-rise building under wind load. The shear dynamic model and equation of motion of the structural system are set up and some parameters of the system are determined based on the model considering the torsion effects of the building. Moreover, an optimal installation model for MR dampers based on genetic algorithm is set up. To simulate the vibration procedures under wind load, a 12-story reinforced concrete eccentric frame structure is used as an example to show the optimal steps and response control effect. The results of the simulation show that genetic algorithm can be used effectively and economically in the optimal installation design of MR dampers in high-rise eccentric buildings to decrease the structural vibration responses induced by wind load.
