Serviceability problem and human-induced vibration control of slender footbridges are of
increasing interest to structural engineers. Passive tuned mass dampers (TMDs) have a …

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 …

Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are used to control wind‐excited responses of high‐rise
building as traditional vibration control devices. A TMD will have an excellent control effect …

A tuned mass damper (TMD) is one of the most used structural control devices. However, a
traditional TMD has the disadvantage of high sensitivity to frequency deviation and difficulty …

Pendulum tuned mass damper (PTMD) is usually used to control the horizontal vibration of a
tall building. However, traditional PTMD is highly sensitive to frequency deviation and …

Researchers have stated that the larger the roller moment of inertia, the better the tuned
rolling cylinder damper (TRCD). However, this statement has not been confirmed. Thus, this …

Pendulum-tuned mass dampers (PTMDs) are attractive to control horizontal vibrations in
buildings. In addition to their performance, they present relatively low cost, and they are easy …

Eddy-current tuned mass dampers (EC-TMDs) are non-contacting passive control devices
and are developed on the basis of conventional tuned mass dampers. They comprise a solid …

Understanding the nonlinearity of pendulum tuned mass dampers (PTMDs) under large-
amplitude vibration is important to enhance control performance. Here, the nonlinear effects …

Abstract Track Nonlinear Energy Sinks (T-NESs) are gravity-based dynamic absorbers
oscillating over properly designed curved tracks. Due to the resulting nonlinear restoring …
