Abstract

In this chapter, recent developments in active and hybrid control techniques is reviewed by introducing experimental projects and some implementations being conducted in Japan. Active and hybrid control techniques are categorized into AMD (active mass damper), ATMD (active tuned Mass Damper), AB (active brace), AVS (active variable stiffness), A VD (active variable damper) and ABI (active base isolation). Shaking-table tests of flexible frame models with TMD, AMD, and ATMD at Kyoto University are also introduced.
