This work investigates the efficiency of tuned inerter dampers (TIDs) in controlling seismic response two adjacent buildings and pounding distance between them. Pervious research on this subject has shown that installing TIDs every floor one coupling each with additional inerters (CS1) provides best control performance. Some potential drawbacks solution are large number devices used practical d...

In this paper, we describe the design and manufacturing of a viscous inertial mass-damper (VIMD) prototype. The damper parameters, mass, damping coefficient can be continuously adjusted. Experimental validations were carried out on VIMD with various parameters scaled sagged cable 19.47 m long for vibration mitigation, along simulation study using finite element method (FEM). experimental result...

High-damping rubber (HDR) dampers have the advantages of convenience for various shapes pressure blocks, aesthetic installation, easy maintenance, temperature stability, etc.; thus, they present good application prospects in vibration reduction stay cables. Hence, a model taut cable equipped with two types HDR damper—i.e., damper and tuned mass–high-damping (TM-HDR-D)—is established herein. The...
