Closed-form solutions for the optimal parameters of three inerter-enhanced dampers (IEDs) equipped on a ground acceleration-excited structure
Abstract Replacing the viscous damper of tuned mass damper (TMD) with the proposed inerter-enhanced dampers (IEDs), novel vibration mitigation methods, namely the IED-TMDs, are proposed.Unlike the TMD, which brings only one additional freedom into the system, the proposed IED-TMDs introduce more freedoms into the considered dynamic COLOUR BATH PINK
