Experimental Sensitivity Analysis and Control of Thermoacoustic Systems in the Linear Regime
… to be a valuable tool for developing optimal passive control solutions. This thesis aims to develop novel experimental sensitivity analysis techniques and provide a first comparison with the predictions of adjoint-based sensitivity analysis. In this thesis experimental sensitivity analysis is …

The tuned mass damper inerter for passive vibration control and energy harvesting in dynamically excited structural systems
A novel passive 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 …

Analytical and Experimental Investigation of Improving Seismic Performance of Steel Moment Frames Using Synthetic Fiber Ropes
… pre-defined elements used to represent the rope devices in the software program. The inability of the elements to capture the complex unloading response of the rope was specifically noted.
