A Comparison between a New Semi-Active Tuned Mass Damper and an Active Tuned Mass Damper
AbstractReducing structural vibrations is one of the main concerns in structural control. Different control techniques are proposed for this purpose. Among the variety of control methods, semi-active ones are very attractive and beneficial in that they require minimum amount of energy but they are very capable to reduce structural displacements.

Experimental Study on Robustness of an Eddy Current-Tuned Mass Damper [PDF]
In this paper, an eddy current tuned mass damper (ECTMD) is utilized to control the vibration of a cantilever beam. The robustness of the ECTMD against frequency detuning is experimentally studied in cases of both free vibration and forced vibration. The
