Preface

Mml or lhc recent research activities in active, hybrid. and semi-active

'11Il,.tUr:11 control have been focused on a variety ofcontrol algorithms based

IItI ,even.1 control design criteria. Although a number of active. hybrid. and

,'1111 ;IClivc control systems have been implemented to control the vibration

III hll1ldings and towers, and many experimental studies have been conducted,

lhr l1('ce,,,ary knowledge needed for implementation is still nOI sufficient to

P'\'II,lIC general guidelines for active control system design and installation.

I urlh\'nnorc. the whole implementation process, which requires integration

tc'carch results from diverse interdisciplinary areas, has not been well
