Comparative Study of Tuned Mass Damper and Tuned Liquid Column Damper for Response Control of Building structures
동조질량감쇠기와 동조액체기둥감쇠기의 건물응답의 제어성능 비교연구
Abstract
In this study, the control performances of Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) and Tuned Liquid Column Damper (TLCD) are evaluated and compared for seismically excited structures. Results show that TLCD is more effective than TMD for interstory drift control while TLCD is as effective as TMD for acceleration control. In special, it is shown that interstory drifts are maximally controlled in lower floors and accelerations are reduced most in upper floors. This indicates that TLCD is an effective controller for earthquake-induced structures in terms of structural safety as well as serviceability.
