In this study, the robust optimum design of a recently developed passive control device, ie,
tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) is investigated to control a 10‐story base‐excited shear …

The current work describes the optimum design of a tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) to
control a benchmark 10-story base-excited linear shear building under seismic excitations …

The present paper focuses on the optimum design of tuned mass damper (TMD) as a device
for control of the structures. The optimum free vibration parameters such as period and …

In this paper we tackle a problem of optimal design and location of Tuned Mass Dampers
(TMDs) for structures subjected to earthquake ground motions, using a novel meta-heuristic …

Optimum design parameters of tuned mass dampers are calculated as a function of damper
to structure mass ratio and inherent damping ratio of the main structure in frequency domain …

Genetic Algorithm solver in Matlab is one of the popular commercial optimisation solvers
commonly used in scientific research. Performance of the solver heavily depends on its …

This paper proposes an improvement to Integral Force Feedback (IFF), which is a popular
method for active vibration control of structures and mechanical systems. Benefits of IFF …

Purpose The negative stiffness integrated tuned mass damper (NS-TMD) is considered as
an interesting and efficient device for passive vibration control. However …

Abstract Design/optimization of the tuned mass damper (TMD) system may not always lead
toward robust performance if uncertainties exist. In view of this, a stochastic design of …

In this paper we present a new mutation procedure for Evolutionary Programming (EP)
approaches, based on Iterated Function Systems (IFSs). The new mutation procedure …
