Description

Seismic performance attributes of multi-story passive and semi-active tuned mass damper (PTMD and SATMD) building systems are investigated for 12-story moment resisting frames modeled as ‘10+2’ stories and ‘8+4’ stories. Segmented upper portion of the stories are isolated as a tuned mass, and a passive viscous damper or semi-active resetable device is adopted as energy dissipation strategy. The semi-active approach uses feedback control to alter or manipulate the reaction forces, effectively ...
