Özet

It is thought that structural control systems developed for structures exposed to earthquake warnings may have an important place in the future as well as today. Among these, base isolation systems ofer efective and practical solutions by damping earthquake-induced vibrations at the ısolatıon level. However, due to the lack of self-adaptation feature against some near- or far-feld earthquakes, semi-active and active control systems have been proposed by some researchers. These systems, which use an external power source, also need a control algorithm in order to take action in the event of an earthquake. In other words, in order for the control system to adapt to any earthquake and act as a vibration damper, a passive device, energy to activate the device and a control algorithm are needed. This review covers important studies on passive, semi-active, hybrid and active control systems recommended for the protection of structures against vibrations caused by earthquakes. The advantages and disadvantages of the studies on these control systems compared to each other have been determined. As a result of the study, some inferences were made about what kind of control system would be recommended in the future, taking into account the defciencies in the literature.
