Abstract

This paper considers the seismic performance of lever-type tuned mass damper(TMD). The lever-type TMD is designed utilizing the seismic-performance of TMD and the control force required for constraining story drift. The TMD is basically designed by tuning the frequency of primary structure. Thus, the TMD plays an important role to reduce the dynamic responses. The lever-type TMD has a merit to control more displacement responses than the existing TMD due to the control forces. It is shown that the optimum design of lever-type TMD is affected by the ratio of the TMD mass with respect to the mass of the primary structure, the damping ration of the primary structure, and the length ratio of the lever. A numerical example exhibits the effectiveness of the dynamic control by the lever-type TMD and its validity is illustrated in a three-story building structure subjected to earthquake.
