Location Effect of Tuned Mass Dampers on the Response of Buildings

TMD의 위치변화에 따른 건물의 응답효과

Conventional tuned mass dampers are located on the top floor of tall buildings, which reduce the fundamental mode response of buildings. Higher modes may have a greater contribution toward the acceleration response of tall buildings. To reduce this, additional tuned mass dampers are required and could be substituted as building equipments. This paper shows, with a numerical ezample, how the lecate tuned mass damper in order to reduce the higher mode response effectively
