A state-of-the-art review on the response control of structures mainly using the passive tuned
mass damper (s)(TMD/s) is presented. The review essentially focuses on the response …

Abstract Supported Pendulum Tuned Mass Dampers (PTMDs) are vibration absorbers
whose mass is constrained to oscillate along a curved path, enabling to use gravity as a …

This paper presents a novel data-driven approach for active structural control through the
use of deep reinforcement learning, wherein, the control system learns to react in an optimal …

This paper proposes a novel inertial-amplification-mechanism (IAM) to enhance the
vibration mitigation performance of the classical tuned mass damper (TMD). To this aim, the …

In recent years, the need of improving safety standards for both existing and new buildings
against earthquake and wind loads has created a growing interest in the use of the so-called …

Presented herein is a study of the effectiveness of suspended lead dampers for use in steel
buildings under a localized impact load and a vertical pulsating load. A series of lead …

A case study where a tuned mass damper (TMD) was installed at the top of a five-story
reinforced concrete (RC) building is presented. The aim of the study was to investigate the …

It is known that the use of passive energy-dissipation devices, such as friction dampers,
reduces considerably the dynamic response of a structure subjected to earthquake ground …

The concept of a steel–concrete hybrid tower (SCHT) has recently been proposed to satisfy
the demand for wind turbine hub higher than 120 m. This study details the effect of tuned …

This paper presents a robust design optimization (RDO) of friction pendulum system (FPS)
isolated building considering different uncertain parameters such as stiffness and damping …
