In recent years, the Tuned Mass Damper with inerter (TMDI) has received significant attention. The is defined to exert a force that in proportion relative acceleration of two terminals. Here, TMDI topologies are investigated. conventional topology given by being parallel spring and viscous damper TMDI. other serial arrangement spring, stiffness mass oscillator While first intends increase inert...

The paper discusses the design and performance of a novel type of passive control system used for suppressing unwanted vibrations in civil engineering structures subjected to both lateral and base excitation. The new control system is inspired by the traditional tuned mass damper (TMD) with the modification that the mass is replaced by an inerter. An inerter has a two-terminal flywheel device c...

High tall buildings are more susceptible to dynamic excitations such as wind and seismic excitations. In this paper, design procedure and some current applications of tuned mass damper (TMD) were studied. TMD was proposed to study response of 20 storey height building to seismic excitations using time history analysis with and without the TMD. The study indicates that the response of structur...
