A semi-active tuned mass damper (TMD) which is capable of adjusting initial displacement and damping is applied to seismic protection of structures. Control algorithms are derived in closed forms using perturbation analysis on modal properties of the sinigle degree of freedom (SDOF) structure/TMD sy

This paper presents how soil}structure interaction a!ects the seismic performance of Tuned Mass Dampers (TMD) when installed on #exibly based structures. Previous studies on this subject have led to inconsistent conclusions since the soil and structure models employed considerably di!er from each ot
Numerical simulations of a single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) structure, rigidly supporting a tuned liquid damper (TLD) and subjected to both real and arti"cially generated earthquake ground motions, show that a properly designed TLD can signi"cantly reduce the structure's response to these motions. Th
