Abstract
Experimental, analytical and simulation results are presented in support of a class of low power (often called semi-active) techniques for structural control. The basic approach is manipulation of the system stiffness through the use of resetting actuators. Experimental validation of the actuator model, analytical results on stability and actuator-placement, and simulation results for earthquake applications are presented
