This paper proposes a novel passive vibration control configuration, namely the tuned mass-
damper–inerter (TMDI), introduced as a generalization of the classical tuned mass-damper …

Vibration absorption is a core research area in the design and control of structures and
machines, and exploiting antiresonances is an effective approach for systems under …

Resonators, inertial amplifiers, negative stiffness devices, and impacting oscillators are
added to the core materials of conventional passive vibration isolation systems to address …

This paper is concerned with the H∞ and H 2 optimization problem for inerter-based
dynamic vibration absorbers (IDVAs). The proposed IDVAs are obtained by replacing the …

This paper introduces the concept of negative stiffness inertial-amplifier-base-isolators to
achieve enhanced broadband vibration control. Three physically different novel isolators …

Tuned inerter damper (TID) is a promising passive vibration control device in earthquake
engineering because it achieves a large inertance-to-mass ratio without requiring a large …

This paper is concerned with the problem of analysis and optimisation of the inerter-based
isolators based on a “uni-axial” single-degree-of-freedom isolation system. In the first part, in …

Novel combinations of true negative stiffness dampers (NSDs) and inerter devices are used
concurrently as supplemental dampers for response control of base-isolated structures. The …

This paper presents the optimal design for novel negative-stiffness non-traditional inerter-
based dynamic vibration absorbers called NS-NIDVAs. The underlying idea of negative …

In this paper, the exact closed-form analytical expressions of the optimal design parameters
for two different base isolation (BI) configurations, ie, grounded (GR-BI) and ungrounded …
