In this study, two dierent benchmark buildings (3 and 20-story) are employed to attenuate structural responses under seismic disturbances. As control devices, active (actuators), semi-active (Magneto-rheological dampers), passive (Tuned mass dampers and Friction Pendulum Bearings), and hybrid controllers are utilized. The 3-story structure is modeled linearly and employed to apply to dierent control strategies. Some control algorithms: LQR, PDD-state-feedback, pole-placement, H1, H2, are used with active and semi-active control devices. As passive devices, TMDs and FPBSs are utilized on the nominal-linear model. Thereafter, hybrid controllers are employed: one composed of a TMD and actuator/MRD and one composed of an FPBS and actuator/MRD. A robust controller, -synthesis, is employed to control the same linear structure having uncertainties in mass, stiness, and damping matrices within reasonable ranges. A nonlinearly-modeled 20-story benchmark structure is employed to implement passive and hybrid control strategies. As passive devices, STMD and MTMD setups are employed. Further, a robust control algorithm is used through an actuator serially connected to the STMD. Subsequently, variations caused by nonlinearities are determined. These variations are regarded as uncertainties, and the -synthesis is utilized in the design of a robust controller on a truncated linear model. Then, the designed robust control is employed to control the 20-story benchmark structure modeled nonlinearly. The structural responses in both frequency and time domains are discussed. Matlab, Python, and OpenSees framework (Tcl/Tk) were employed to realize all linear and nonlinear simulations throughout the study.
