Dynamic range implications for the effectiveness of semi-active tuned mass dampers
… traditional solution is the implementation of a tuned mass damper (TMD), which acts as a passive damping device in the region of the tuned frequency. However, TMDs exhibit a limited bandwidth and often require a significant mass. Active systems, such as the active mass driver, have been utilized …

High amplitude response behavior of a linear oscillator-nonlinear absorber system: Identification, analysis, and attenuation by using a semi-active absorber in series
… structure"). The simplest auxiliary absorber, a tuned mass damper (TMD), provides reliable narrow-band attenuation but is not robust to the effects of detuning. Strongly nonlinear tuned mass dampers (NTMDs) are capable of wide-band, irreversible energy transfer known as "energy pumping" but can …

Schematic design of distributed mass damping systems for tall buildings
… of motion control devices, such as the Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) and Tuned Liquid Column Damper (TLCD). Contemporary designs implement devices where the dynamic response is the greatest, often at the top of buildings, occupying entire floors and inhibiting the sale of valuable real estate. …

Active vibration control for a free piston stirling engine with linear alternator FPSE/LA
… is a synchronous machine that is designed and tuned to operate at 50Hz ± 0.5Hz. This type of technology has to comply with the new regulations that imposes a<br/>wider operating envelop (47Hz-53Hz).<br/><br/>This engine suffers from continuous self-induced vibrations caused by the reciprocating …

The tuned mass damper inerter for passive vibration control and energy harvesting in dynamically excited structural systems
… vibration control configuration, namely the Tuned-Mass-Damper-Inerter (TMDI) is proposed in this work. The TMDI combines the “inerter”, a mechanical two-terminal flywheel device developing resisting forces proportional to the relative acceleration of its terminals, with the well-known and …

Theoretical and experimental study on cable vibration reduction with a TMD-MR damper
… to using the existing Magnetorheological (MR) damper, the current study proposes a new type of damper, called the Tuned Mass Damper-Magnetorheological (TMD-MR) damper. Theoretical and experimental investigations for the damper performance on the cable vibration reduction are conducted, which …
