An online parameter estimation is important along with the adaptive control, that is, a time-dependent plant. This study uses both online identification and the simple adaptive control algorithm with velocity feedback. The recursive least squares method was used to identify the stiffness and damping parameters of the structure’s stories. Identification was carried out online without initial estimation and only by measuring the structural responses. The limited information regarding sensor measurements, parameter convergence, and the effects of the covariance matrix is examined. The integration of the applied online identification, the appropriate reference model selection in simple adaptive control, and adopting the proportional integral filter was used to limit the structural control response error. Some numerical examples are simulated to verify the ability of the proposed approach. Despite the limited information, the results show that the simultaneous use of online identification with the recursive least squares method and simple adaptive control algorithm improved the overall structural performance.
