Abstract

A damper is a significant tool that can enhance a building’s seismic performance. When these dampers are integrated into a structure, they help to reduce seismic forces such as absolute acceleration, displacement, velocity, and base shear. By simulating earthquake scenarios with and without tuned mass dampers (TMDs), it has been demonstrated that this system can effectively decrease responses based on the structure’s sensitivity. The study involved creating analytical models for both the structure and TMD, treating the TMD as a passive energy device, to assess the dynamic absorber's efficiency. The analysis aimed to determine how the structure’s dynamic behavior is influenced when the absorber is installed on the top floor. A comparison between the structure with TMD and without revealed that TMDs also enhance the structural behavior by lessening displacement, drift ratio, and shear force, depending on the frequency content of the earthquake excitation.
