Optimal tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) design for seismically excited MDOF structures with model uncertainties based on reliability criteria [PDF]

, 2018
The tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) is a recently proposed linear passive dynamic vibration absorber for the seismic protection of buildings. It couples the classical tuned mass damper (TMD) with an inerter, a two-terminal device resisting the relative ...

Inerter Location-Based Vibration Suppression Study of a Transmission Line Equipped with Tuned-Mass-Damper-Inerter (TMDI) under Harmonic Excitation

Buildings, 2022
This paper proposes a novel ungrounded TMDI to improve the vibration suppression performance of the transmission line under harmonic excitation. This type of inerter-based damper may transform a translational motion into a rotational motion, greatly ...

Performance of Numerically Optimized Tuned Mass Damper with Inerter (TMDI)

Applied Sciences, 2022
In recent years, the Tuned Mass Damper with inerter (TMDI) has received significant attention. The inerter is defined to exert a force that is in proportion to the relative acceleration of the two inerter terminals.

Performance evaluation for inerter-based dynamic vibration absorbers [PDF]

, 2015
This paper is concerned with the H∞ and H2 optimization problem for inerter-based dynamic vibration absorbers (IDVAs). The proposed IDVAs are obtained by replacing the damper in the traditional dynamic vibration absorber (TDVA) with some inerter-based ...

TMD-Inerter for Tall Building Damping: Approximate Closed-Form Solution, Performance and Conclusions

Buildings
This paper analyzes the performance of the TMD-Inerter for tall building damping. The analysis is performed by simulation to ensure ideal working behaviour of the inerter, i.e., the inerter produces a force in proportion to the relative acceleration of ...
