Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of civil engineering and vibration control, and in particular relates to an adaptive tuned mass damper with active, semi-active and passive control intelligent switching. Background Art

[0002] With the development of structural design and construction technology, building structures have become taller and more slender. However, high-rise buildings are very sensitive to vibrations under disasters due to their light body, low natural frequency and damping ratio. Earthquakes are one of the most destructive and dangerous natural disasters. How to protect the safety of building structures under earthquakes has always been a hot topic for scholars in the world's civil engineering community. Under the stimulation of typhoons, short-term strong winds in severe convective weather, etc., high-rise buildings may produce large vibrations. Excessive acceleration response of the structure will cause comfort problems for indoor users, and displacement response will endanger the safety of the building structure. With people's higher requirements for the safety and comfort of building structures, it is more challenging and valuable to conduct intelligent disaster prevention and mitigation research on structures under multiple disasters. In order to control the vibration response of building structures under external disasters and improve their safety, a common method is to add dampers to the structure for vibration control, that is, to dissipate the kinetic energy of the structure through the additional dampers, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing structural vibration. Controlling the dynamic response of building structures under multiple disasters and improving their safety are of great significance to protecting the lives and property of the people.

[0003] Tuned mass damper (TMD) is a traditional structural vibration control device. TMD is a single-degree-of-freedom dynamic vibration absorber composed of mass unit, stiffness unit and damping unit. It is necessary to propose an intelligent tuned mass damper that can simultaneously control the bidirectional vibration of the structure. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an adaptive tuned mass damper with active, semi-active and passive control intelligent switching, which can adjust its own bidirectional frequency and damping ratio in real time and has better bidirectional vibration control performance than traditional tuned mass dampers.

[0005] The objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: An adaptive tuned mass damper with active, semi-active and passive control intelligent switching comprises: a floor top plate and a floor bottom plate, an upper connecting plate is connected to the lower surface of the floor top plate by welding or bolts, a lower connecting plate is connected to the upper surface of the floor top plate by welding or bolts, a mass block is arranged between the upper connecting plate and the lower connecting plate, a damping groove for containing damping fluid is opened in the center of the mass block, a plurality of shape memory alloy springs are evenly arranged between the upper connecting plate and the mass block and connect the upper connecting plate and the mass block, and a plurality of air springs are evenly arranged between the upper connecting plate and the mass block. It is arranged between the upper connecting plate and the mass block and connects the upper connecting plate and the mass block. The mass block is connected to the floor bottom plate through a friction pendulum support composed of a support top plate, a slider and a support bottom plate. The lower surface of the mass block is connected to the support top plate by bolts, and the lower surface of the support bottom plate is connected to the floor bottom plate by welding or bolts. The slider is placed between the support top plate and the support bottom plate and can slide smoothly in both directions in a plane, thereby driving the mass block to slide in both directions, thereby realizing bidirectional vibration control of the structure.

[0006] The lower connecting plate is connected to a jack by bolts to apply thrust or pull to the friction pendulum support. The jack provides active control force for the friction pendulum support to ensure that the mass block can slide to start working under slight wind vibration and control its excessive stroke under extreme disasters. Preferably, the adjustable length range of the jack is 1-150 mm.

[0007] The stepping electric rod extends into the damping groove along the Y direction and can perform telescopic movement under the control of the control center. The damping steel plate is connected to the stepping electric rod by welding or bolts and moves with the stepping electric rod to change the length of the damping steel plate extending into the damping groove. The damping steel plate provides a bidirectional damping force through relative movement with the damping fluid in the damping groove, and its damping force can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the damping steel plate extending into the damping groove by the stepping electric rod. The damping fluid is a silicone damping fluid or a magnetorheological damping fluid. When the damping fluid is a magnetorheological damping fluid, the damping can also be changed by using an electric current to change the viscosity of the magnetorheological damping fluid. Wherein, the damping groove can be rectangular or annular. Preferably, the adjustable length range of the stepping electric rod is 1-5 m.

[0008] The adaptive tuned mass damper with active, semi-active and passive control intelligent switching as described above is also provided with a plurality of acceleration sensors for measuring the X-direction acceleration and Y-direction acceleration of the support base plate and the X-direction acceleration and Y-direction acceleration of the mass block, respectively, and the plurality of acceleration sensors are connected to the control center through wired or wireless transmission. The control center obtains the bidirectional optimal frequency and damping ratio of the tuned mass damper by analyzing and processing the acceleration signals of each acceleration sensor.

[0009] Among them, the multiple acceleration sensors include at least: acceleration sensor I, adsorbed on the horizontal X-direction of the side of the support base plate, used to measure the horizontal X-direction acceleration of the support base plate; acceleration sensor II, adsorbed on the horizontal X-direction of the side of the mass block, used to measure the horizontal X-direction acceleration of the mass block; acceleration sensor III, adsorbed on the horizontal Y-direction of the side of the support base plate, used to measure the horizontal Y-direction acceleration of the support base plate; and acceleration sensor IV, adsorbed on the horizontal Y-direction of the side of the mass block, used to measure the horizontal Y-direction acceleration of the mass block.

[0010] The floor top plate, floor bottom plate, mass block, support top plate, slider, support bottom plate, upper connecting plate, damping steel plate and damping groove form the passive control part of the damper of the adaptive tuned mass damper.

[0011] The plurality of acceleration sensors and the control hub form a servo control portion of the adaptive tuned mass damper.

[0012] The lower connecting plate and the jack form the active control part of the adaptive tuned mass damper.

[0013] The stepping electric rod, shape memory alloy spring and air spring form the semi-active control part of the adaptive tuned mass damper. Preferably, the shape memory alloy spring and the air spring are respectively connected between the upper connecting plate and the mass block by means of a reserved buckle. The number of the shape memory alloy spring and the air spring is 4 to 8, and the shape memory alloy spring and the air spring are symmetrically arranged along the two sides of the mass block. The shape memory alloy spring can change its stiffness and frequency by changing its power supply, and the air spring can change its stiffness and frequency by changing its air pressure, thereby realizing variable stiffness control to ensure the accurate instantaneous vibration frequency of the damper and improve its bidirectional vibration reduction effect.

[0014] The multiple acceleration sensors form a health monitoring part of the adaptive tuned mass damper. Real-time vibration signals of the adaptive tuned mass damper and the floors of the building structure where it is located are stored, transmitted and analyzed in real time by the health monitoring part to ensure the normal operation and safety of the building structure and the adaptive tuned mass damper.

[0015] The adaptive tuned mass damper with active, semi-active and passive control intelligent switching proposed in the present invention can realize bidirectional vibration control of the structure by smooth bidirectional sliding of the friction pendulum support in the plane; a jack is used to provide active control force for the friction pendulum support to ensure that the mass block can slide to start working under slight wind vibration and control its excessive stroke under extreme disasters; a bidirectional damping force is provided by the relative movement between the damping steel plate and the damping fluid in the damping groove; variable stiffness control is used to ensure the accurate instantaneous vibration frequency of the damper and improve its bidirectional vibration reduction effect; the real-time vibration signals of the tuned mass damper and the building structure in which it is located are stored, transmitted and analyzed in real time by the health monitoring part to ensure the normal operation and safety of the building structure and the tuned mass device.

[0016] The above scheme has the following beneficial effects: First, the tuned mass damper of the present invention can simultaneously control the bidirectional vibration of a high-rise building in a plane, and has the advantages of saving building space, saving the amount of dampers, reducing concentrated loads on floors and saving costs.

[0017] Second, the tuned mass damper of the present invention can start to slide under relatively small wind vibrations, and the active control part will stop working when the tuned mass damper can move; under extreme disasters, the active control part can limit the stroke of the tuned mass damper to ensure safety.

[0018] Third, the tuned mass damper of the present invention has better bidirectional vibration control performance than the traditional tuned mass damper because it can adjust its own bidirectional frequency and damping ratio in real time.

[0019] Fourth, when the semi-active control part of the tuned mass damper of the present invention is not started, the tuned mass damper is a conventional passive tuned mass damper, which can meet the established comfort index through optimized design and obtain a better comfort margin under semi-active control.

[0020] Fifth, the real-time vibration signals of the tuned mass damper and the building structure of the present invention are stored, transmitted and analyzed in real time by the health monitoring part to ensure the normal operation and safety of the building structure and the tuned mass damper.
