As story masses are supposed to be correctlyestimated at the design stage, and only inter story stiffness k and damping coefficients c are updated.During strong ground motions, primary concern is given to the maximum value <strong>of</strong> drift andacceleration; thus the error e is defined to give much importance to the approximation <strong>of</strong> peak values.outputtime11e = ∑ ∑ ( yij− ym,ij ) yij(4)n n mean( y )outputni= 1 time ij j=1jConsequently the values <strong>of</strong> k and c are obtained by minimizing e. This measure can also be used tocompare this identification method with an ARX model and the N4SID method. The natural periodsand damping ratios corresponding to the direct identification are given in appendix.Updated ParametersThe updated structural parameters are also obtained by using the ARX and N4SID results. The updateis realized by optimizing K and C matrices, so that the natural periods and damping ratios calculatedfrom the complex eigenvalues analysis (Eq. 5) <strong>of</strong> the A-B system <strong>of</strong> Eq. (3) are similar to the results <strong>of</strong>the ARX and the N4SID identifications.ΩA + B = 0 , n = Ωnω , n = − Re( Ω n ) Ω nUpdated stiffness and damping coefficients are depicted on Figs. 8 and 9.nξ (5)1031
