Base-isolated structure equipped with tuned liquid column damper: An experimental study

A Novel Solution to Find the Dynamic Response of an Euler–Bernoulli Beam Fitted with Intraspan TMDs under Poisson Type Loading

“…"Passive control devices are systems which do not require any external power source, imparting forces that are developed in response to the motion of the structure" [14]. Active control devices "rely on a control algorithm" [15] and thus require an external power source unless the power required to run the control algorithm can be generated by the damper itself. This idea of generating power from the damping action gives rise to the idea of a new breed of smart dampers.…”

Eficiencia de un amortiguador de columna de líquido sintonizado considerando una excitación sísmica de bajo contenido de frecuencias e incertidumbre

“…Los resultados muestran que, para una excitación de ancho de banda amplio, el ACLS se sintoniza con la segunda frecuencia lineal equivalente, y para una excitación de ancho de banda angosto, se sintoniza con la frecuencia predominante del input. Furtmüller et al (2019) analizan ACLS, como un dispositivo de protección sísmica para el control de una Espinoza, G., Quinteros, C., Gajardo, K., Suazo, A. y Quijada, S. (2021).

Assessment of the tuned mass damper inerter for seismic response control of base‐isolated structures

“…Because, unlike traditional TMDs, the equations governing the TLCD controlled systems response is nonlinear and the definition of the optimal TLCD parameters is time‐consuming in a predesign phase, 12,14 many studies have introduced some formulations to choose the optimal parameters of TLCD in a direct way and some experimental tests have been conducted to prove the reliability of these procedures 15 . Furthermore, the effectiveness of TLCDs in reducing the base displacement demand has been experimentally assessed in Furtmüller et al 16 by small‐scale tests on isolated structural models.…”
