Optimal control of a plan asymmetric structure using magnetorheological dampers

M Braz-César, R Barros - Archive of Applied Mechanics, 2017 - Springer
Although building structures can be perceived as a combination of primary frames in two
orthogonal directions, they are three-dimensional systems that usually present a very …
