dual-layer multiple tuned mass dampers for vibration control of structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
the performance of dual-layer multiple tuned mass dampers (dl-mtmd) with uniformly distributed natural frequencies is investigated. the dl-mtmd consists of one large tuned mass damper (l-tmd) and an arbitrary number of small tuned mass dampers (s-tmd). the primary structure is represented as a single degree-of-freedom system which corresponds to a specific vibration mode to be controlled in a real structure. the response of the structure with dl-mtmd is studied under harmonic excitation acting at the primary main system. the performance criterion used for assessing the optimum parameters and effectiveness of the dl-mtmd is selected as the minimization of the maximum dynamic magnification factor (dmf) of the displacement response of main structure. two dynamic models of the dl-mtmd are proposed in the present study. the model-i consists of s-tmd having the same mass and damping ratio and uniform distribution of natural frequencies. the model-ii consists of s-tmd with same stiffness and equal damping ratio and uniform distribution of natural frequencies. the comparative performance of the two models indicated that the performance of model-ii in comparison with model-i is superior with respect to reduction in the displacement dmf.

Studies have already demonstrated the successful use of linear semiactive damping devices, such as variable orifice (VO) dampers, for semiactive TMD systems. More recently, nonlinear semiactive damping devices, such as magnetorheological (MR) dampers, have also been shown to be effective for semiactive control of TMDs. Though semiactive dampers differ widely, with responses ranging from linear ...
