A state-of-the-art review on the response control of structures mainly using the passive tuned
mass damper (s)(TMD/s) is presented. The review essentially focuses on the response …

The tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) couples the classical tuned mass damper (TMD) with
an inerter, a mechanical device whose generated force is proportional to the relative …

The performance of tuned mass dampers (TMDs) relies on a tuning process in which the
parameters are optimized for one or several objectives. For this purpose, several …

The dynamic performance of base‐isolated buildings can be improved by introducing a
tuned mass damper (TMD) at basement, below the isolation floor where most of the …

The earthquake-resilient design of a reinforced concrete framed building is presented in this
paper as a case study. A non-conventional application of the base isolation in conjunction …

In this study, the music-inspired Harmony Search (HS) algorithm is modified for the
optimization of active tuned mass dampers (ATMDs). The modification of HS includes the …

Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are widely adopted to control the adverse vibrations of
engineering structures. To further improve the effectiveness of TMD, inerter was introduced …

Abstract The Bouc–Wen (BW) model is a successful differential equations model used to
describe a wide range of nonlinear hysteretic systems. However, it is unable to describe …

The use of TMDs is commonly discouraged for structures subjected to short-duration, pulse-
like ground motions such as near-field earthquake excitations. Friction tuned mass damper …

The optimum design of a recent tuned mass damper with pinched hysteresis (TMD-PH) for
seismic protection of structures is here investigated. The considered device consists of …
