Article Citation - Scopus: 1Evaluating the Seismic Performance of Advanced Tuned Mass Dampers Considering Soil–Structure Interaction Effect(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2025) Shahraki, M.A.; Roozbahan, M.This study examines the seismic effectiveness of four different tuned mass damper (TMD) configurations: classical TMD, Tuned Mass Damper Inerter (TMDI), Elastoplastic Tuned Mass Damper Inerter (PTMDI), and Dual-Stiffness Tuned Mass Damper (DSTMD), focusing on their ability to reduce structural responses. A model of a 10-story steel shear frame is used, accounting for soil–structure interaction (SSI) effect to represent realistic conditions. The damper parameters are optimized using the Mouth Brooding Fish (MBF) algorithm with a hybrid objective function combining normalized peak displacement and kinetic energy reduction. The optimization process is tested against fourteen near- and far-field earthquake scenarios, with an additional ten records used to validate performance. The findings reveal that, under fixed-base conditions, TMD and TMDI achieve the largest displacement reductions (37.6% and 37.5%, respectively), while PTMDI provides the greatest kinetic energy mitigation (56.4%). DSTMD shows moderate reductions in both responses (≈ 23% displacement, 29.3% energy). When soil–structure interaction is considered, the efficiency of all systems decreases. TMDI maintains the best displacement reduction (12.9%), whereas PTMDI offers the highest energy reduction (25.5%). Additional assessments of roof acceleration and base shear highlight important trade-offs, stressing the importance of a multidimensional evaluation. In summary, this research underscores the significance of energy-based metrics and the influence of the SSI effect in evaluating dampers. Instead of advocating for or against any specific system, the analysis offers a comparative perspective on their performance under various conditions, helping to inform decisions in performance-based seismic design. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Effect of Soil Water Content Changes on the Behavior of Buildings Equipped With Single and Double Tuned Mass Dampers Subjected To Earthquakes(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2025) Roozbahan, M.; Turan, G.Tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are one of the structural control systems that have been frequently used in the last century. A TMD is designed according to the properties of the main system. In building applications, the substructure’s soil affects the response of buildings, especially in soft-type soils. Therefore, the soil properties should be included in the analysis and design of tuned mass dampers. However, the soil properties are not always identical and vary due to different factor changes such as soil water content changes. Unlike previous research, which typically assumes constant soil properties, this study incorporates the impact of soil water content changes, a key factor that can significantly alter soil behavior. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of optimized single and double tuned mass dampers (DTMDs) in response reduction of buildings considering the changes in the water content of soil. In this study, a metaheuristic-based optimization method is programmed to optimize TMDs and DTMDs for low-, mid-, and high-rise buildings considering soil-structure interaction (SSI). The efficiency of the optimized tuned mass dampers on the response reduction of buildings due to changes in soil water content is evaluated. According to the investigated results of 14 near-field earthquake simulations, it is concluded that the efficiency of the TMDs is significantly affected by changes in soil water content. Moreover, according to the result, the DTMD efficiency is slightly better than the TMD-controlled structure. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.
