Abstract

Based on piezoelectric ceramics' piezoelectric effect, a new type of piezoelectric ceramic friction damper (PCFD) is designed and manufactured to provide a reliable energy dissipation device for structural response control. In the PCFD, high-strength bolts limit the deformation of piezoelectric ceramics under voltage, and the resulting reaction force changes the preload of high-strength bolts, thereby realizing real-time adjustment of friction by adjusting the positive pressure on the friction surface. The influence of friction plates with different materials on the hysteretic performance of friction damper under different tightening torque is investigated by cyclic loading test to determine the friction plate's selection in the PCFD. The hysteretic performance test is carried out to evaluate the energy dissipation capacity of PCFD with different voltages, and the experimental results are compared with the theoretical values. The finite element model of PCFD is established to analyze the stress distribution of each component of the PCFD under different voltages. Based on the semi-active control characteristics of PCFD, the Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy neural network semi-active control system for frame structure with PCFD is designed. The adaptive learning function of the adaptive network-based fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) is used to generate fuzzy rules and fuzzy neural network controller (FNNC). Finally, the semi-active control simulation of three-storey frame structure model under seismic excitation is carried out by Simulink. The experimental and numerical results show that the PCFD designed in this paper has good energy dissipation capacity, and the maximum control force increases linearly with the increase of voltage. The combination of FNNC, which is established by ANFIS, and PCFD can effectively reduce the structure response.
