Use of inerter devices for weight reduction of tuned mass-dampers for seismic protection of multi-storey buildings: the tuned mass-damper-interter (TMDI) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper explores the practical benefits of the recently proposed by the authors tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) visà- vis the classical tuned mass-damper (TMD) for the passive vibration control of seismically excited linearly building structures ...

Influence of Variable Damping Coefficient on Efficiency of TMD with Inerter

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
In this paper, we study the dynamics of a two-degree freedom system consisting of the main body and tuned mass damper with inerter (TMDI). We add the dash-pot with variable damping coefficient to TMDI to study the overall efficiency of the device.

Enhanced vibrational energy harvesting using non-linear stochastic resonance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Stochastic resonance has seen wide application in the physical sciences as a tool to understand weak signal amplification by noise. However, this apparently counter- intuitive phenomenon does not appear to have been exploited as a tool to enhance ...

Efficiency of Using Tuned Mass Damper to Reduce Damage after Strong Earthquakes

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The efficiency of applying tuned mass damper is substantiated for reducing the damageability of structures under strong earthquakes. Two models of structure damage accumulation are considered.

Semi-Active Structural Control of Offshore Wind Turbines Considering Damage Development

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018
High flexibility of new offshore wind turbines (OWT) makes them vulnerable since they are subjected to large environmental loadings, wind turbine excitations and seismic loadings.

Using a Rigid Restraint with a Built-In Tuned Mass Damper to Control the Vibration of Cables

open access: yesBuildings
Cables are widely utilized as load-carrying members due to their excellent mechanical properties. However, the inherent damping of cables is usually extremely low, thereby causing undesired vibrations to occur frequently under various external ...

Device topology optimization for an inerter-based structural dynamic vibration absorber

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
A tuned viscous mass damper (TVMD) and a tuned inerter damper (TID) have been proposed as devices that can achieve weight reduction by replacing the mass element of a structural dynamic vibration absorber (DVA) with an inerter.

Vibration Control of a High-Rise Slender Structure with a Spring Pendulum Pounding Tuned Mass Damper

open access: yesActuators, 2021
High-rise structures are normally tall and slender with a large height-width ratio. Under the strong seismic action, such a structure may experience violent vibrations and large deformation.

Vibration suppression in multi-body systems by means of disturbance filter design methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper addresses the problem of interaction in mechanical multi-body systems and shows that subsystem interaction can be considerably minimized while increasing performance if an efficient disturbance model is used.
