A base isolation system is widely used to reduce seismic responses of low-rise buildings. This system cannot be effectively applied to high-rise buildings because the initial stiffness of the high-rise building with the base isolation system maintains almost the same as the building without the base isolation system to set the yield shear force of the base isolation system larger than the design wind load. To solve this problem, the mid-story isolation system was proposed and applied to many buildings. The mid-story isolation system has two major objectives; first to reduce peak story drift and second to reduce peak drift of the isolation story. Usually, these two objectives are in conflict. In this study, a hybrid mid-story isolation system for a tall building is proposed. A MR (magnetorheological) damper was used to develop the hybrid mid-story isolation system. An existing building with mid-story isolation system, that is “Shiodome Sumitomo Building” a high rise building having a large atrium in the lower levels, was used for control performance evaluation of the hybrid mid-story isolation system. Fuzzy logic controller and genetic algorithm were used to develop the control algorithm for the hybrid mid-story isolation system. It can be seen from analytical results that the hybrid mid-story isolation system can provide better control performance than the ordinary mid-story isolation system and the design process developed in this study is useful for preliminary design of the hybrid mid-story isolation system for a tall building.

본 논문은 하이브리드 전기 추진 시스템의 전력 제어에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 하이브리드 전기 추진 시스템은 기본적으로 발전기와 축전지 전원을 이용하여 선박을 추진하는 시스템이다. 하이브리드 추진 시스템은 공급되는 전력을 최소화하기 위한 제어 알고리즘으로 동작한다. 본 논문에서는 하이브리드 전기 추진 시스템의 효율을 증가시키기 위한 축전지 충전 알고리즘을 제안한다. 실험을 통하여 제어 알고리즘이 하이브리드 전기 추진 시스템에서 정상적으로 동작하는 것을 알 수 있었다.
