Abstract
The time delay between measuring the structural response, and applying the designed active control forces may affect the controlled response of the structure if not taken into consideration. In this paper it is shown how to design the control forces to compensate for the delay effect. It is also shown that the time delay effect can be used as a criterion to judge the effectiveness of the proposed control mechanism. As an illustration of the theoretical consideration, a numerical example in which a tall building is controlled by means of active tendons is presented.
