Abstract

In this research, active tendons' optimal placement based on an enumeration method has been investigated in the presence of various uncertainties such as parametric uncertainty, time delay, and sensor/actuator faults. To design the appropriate controller against uncertainties,  method has been used as a useful method according to the robust control theory.
