Abstract Tuned mass dampers may be used to improve vibrational behavior of structures. However, they require space move. This paper presents an approach incorporate tuned into a lightweight-optimized structure without extra requirement. It is based on (1) topology optimization (TopOpt) with unit cells and (2) vibration reduction multiple (m-TMD) within the cells. The performed physics-informed ...

As one of the most representative passive control devices, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are widely used in civil engineering, aerospace, machinery, and other fields, after years research improvement. However, due to their large displacement use a limiting device, they inevitably exhibit some nonlinear characteristics practical engineering applications. This nonlinearity is often ignored; however, ...

The tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) is a linear passive dynamic vibration absorber widely considered in the literature to mitigate motion of dynamically excited primary structures. Previous studies focused on optimal TMDI tuning approaches and connectivity arrangements improve control efficiency for some given structure. This paper investigates influence elastic properties structure performanc...
