Vibration Control of a Power Transmission Tower with Pounding Tuned Mass Damper under Multi-Component Seismic Excitations [PDF]
In this paper, the two-dimensional vibration controls of a power transmission tower with a pounding tuned mass damper (PTMD) under multi-component seismic excitations are analyzed. A three-dimensional finite element model of a practical power transmission tower is established in ABAQUS (Dassasult Simulia Company, Providence, RI, USA).

Vibration Attenuation in a High-Rise Hybrid-Timber Building: A Comparative Study
Recent developments in engineered timber products, and their availability, durability, and renewability, have led to taller and more flexible buildings. However, these buildings may experience excessive vibrations, resulting in safety and serviceability ...

Study on Methods to Control Interstory Deflections
One of the possibilities to prevent building pounding between two adjacent structures is to consider appropriate in-between separation distance. Another approach might be focused on controlling the relative displacements during seismic excitations ...

Summary Pounding tuned mass damper (PTMD) is a novel type of passive damper. The PTMD utilizes collisions or impacts of a tuned mass with viscoelastic materials to efficiently dissipate the vibration energy of primary structures. The previous studies have verified its effective damping performance on a full-scale subsea jumper and other structures in ...

Seismic Vibration Mitigation of a Cable-Stayed Bridge with Asymmetric Pounding Tuned Mass Damper [PDF]
In order to mitigate the seismic response of a cable-stayed bridge, a new type damping device named asymmetric pounding tuned mass damper (APTMD) is developed in this paper on the basis of the traditional symmetric pounding tuned mass damper. The novel APTMD has three parameters to be determined: the left-side gap, the right-side gap, and the frequency

Reduction of Vibrations in Long‐Span Continuous Girder Bridges with Pounding Tuned Mass Dampers
Earthquakes often cause bridges to vibrate to different degrees; moreover, in the case of poor road conditions, the vibration amplitude of bridges caused by vehicles often exceeds a reasonable range, thus causing different degrees of damage to bridges.

Study on Seismic Performance of TID-LRB Hybrid Control System under Multi-Level Earthquakes
The seismic response characteristics of a lead-rubber-bearing(LRB) base-isolated structure under rare and very rare earthquakes were investigated. The acceleration, ductility coefficient, and shear strain of the LRB increase significantly under very rare
