This paper proposes a wavelet-based fuzzy neuro control algorithm for the hazard mitigation of seismically excited buildings equipped with a hybrid control system. The wavelet-based fuzzy neuro controller is developed through the integration of discrete wavelet transform, artificial neural network, and a Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy controller. The hybrid control system is an integrated model of an actuator, a tuned mass damper, and viscous liquid dampers: an active tuned mass damper (ATMD) is located on the top floor of the structure and viscous liquid dampers are located on each floor. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed wavelet-based adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (WANFIS) controller, an eight-story building employing passive viscous liquid dampers as well as an ATMD is investigated. A variety of earthquakes such as an artificial earthquake, the 1940 El-Centro, Kobe, Northridge, and Hachinohe earthquakes are used as disturbance signals. It is demonstrated that the WANFIS controller is effective in reducing the structural responses of the hybrid structure system subjected to a variety of disturbances.
