“…Elias and Matsagar [ 46 ] presented a detailed literature survey for the research development of TMDs. Two recent progresses in the optimal use of TMDs are (i) distributing the TMDs along the height of the building [ 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 ] (this approach was particularly proven to be effective for a high-rise 76-story benchmark building submitted to wind loadings [ 51 ]) and (ii) use of inertance to connect the TMD to ground or lower floors [ 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 , 62 ].…”

Since the early ages of human existence on Earth, humans have fought against natural hazards for survival. Over time, the most dangerous hazards humanity has faced are earthquakes and strong winds. Since then and till nowadays, the challenges are ongoing to construct higher buildings that can withstand the forces of nature. This paper is a detailed review of various vibration control strategies used to enhance the dynamical response of high-rise buildings. Hence, different control strategies studied and used in civil engineering are presented with illustrations of real applications if existing. The main aim of this review paper is to provide a reference-rich document for all the contributors to the vibration control of structures. This paper will clarify the applicability of specific control strategies for high-rise buildings. It is worth noting that not all the studied and investigated methods are applicable to high-rise buildings; a few of them remain limited by many parameters such as cost-effectiveness and engineering-wise installation and maintenance.

“…To this end, in recent years, the coupling of TMD with an inerter in the so-called tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) configuration proposed by Giaralis (2013, 2014) was shown to be an effective solution for the seismic protection of non-isolated buildings in several theoretical studies (Giaralis and Marian 2016;Ruiz et al 2018;Taflanidis et al 2019;Kaveh et al 2020;Patsialis et al 2021;Djerouni et al 2022) by addressing all the aforementioned TMD shortcomings. Specifically, in the TMDI configuration, the secondary mass is connected to a lower floor (from the one where the damper is attached to) via an inerter.…”

“…More recently, Ruiz et al (2018) and Taflanidis et al (2019) showed that through judicial tuning supported by bi-objective optimal design formulations, the TMDI achieves improved structural seismic performance in terms of storey drifts and floor accelerations at the cost of increased control forces exerted to the host buildings structure. Moreover, Kaveh et al (2020) and Djerouni et al (2022) established the potential of TMDI for seismic response mitigation using a large sets of non-pulse and pulse-like recorded ground motions, respectively. Lastly, Patsialis et al (2021) demonstrated that TMDI is more robust than TMD to detuning due to inelastic seismic structural response.…”

In recent years, the tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) has been demonstrated in several theoretical studies to be an effective vibration absorber for the seismic protection of non-isolated buildings. Its effectiveness relies on careful tuning of the TMDI stiffness and damping properties, while its performance improves with the increase of the inertance property which is readily scalable. Nevertheless, in all previous studies, the energy dissipative TMDI element has been modelled by a linear viscous damper. Still, commercial viscous dampers display a nonlinear velocity-dependent power law behavior. In this regard, this paper investigates, for the first time in literature, the potential of the TMDI fitted with nonlinear viscous damper (NVD) for seismic response protection of multi-storey buildings. This is supported by an efficient optimal nonlinear TMDI (NTMDI) tuning approach which accounts for any absorber connectivity to the building structure and employs statistical linearization to treat the nonlinear damping term. For the special case of white-noise excited undamped buildings, optimal NTMDI tuning is derived analytically in closed-form which is shown to be sufficiently accurate for lightly damped structures. Comprehensive numerical data are presented to delineate trends of optimal NVD damping coefficient with the NVD power-law exponent and the inertance. Further, nonlinear response history analysis results pertaining to optimally tuned NTMDI application for a benchmark 9-storey steel structure demonstrate that reduced NTMDI stroke and inerter force can be achieved with negligible change in storey drifts and floor acceleration performance by adopting lower NVD exponent values, leading to practically beneficial NTMDI deployments.

“…Besides the vehicle suspension, the inerter element has been successfully deployed in other areas as well, for example, in the area of civil engineering, three different types of inerter-based dampers (IBD), namely the tuned viscous mass damper (TVMD), the tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI), and the tuned inerter damper (TID), were studied, and these IBDs were found effective in seismic response control of structures [12][13][14][15]. In the area of railway suspension, an inerter is widely used in the design of train suspension systems.…”

This paper concerns the dynamic performance analysis of the vehicle ISD (inerter-spring-damper) suspension employing an eccentric inerter. Firstly, the quarter car model of the two basic vehicle suspension layouts involving an eccentric inerter, namely, the series-connected layout and the parallel-connected layout, is established. Then, by considering the overall performance such as the vehicle body acceleration, the suspension working space, and the dynamic tire load, the key parameters of the two suspensions are optimized by using the genetic algorithm. Simulation analysis results indicate that the series-connected vehicle ISD suspension is superior to the parallel-connected one, and all of the RMS values of the body acceleration, the suspension working space, and the dynamic tire load are decreased significantly by comparing to the conventional suspension, while the improvement of the parallel-connected vehicle ISD suspension is relatively poor. At last, the impact of the flywheel eccentricity and the screw pitch on the dynamic performance indices of the two suspensions is discussed, and the trade-offs among the three performances are analyzed, which will provide a guide method for the suspension design when considering the eccentric factor.
