    Efficiency Evaluation of Optimal Tlcd and Tmd for the Seismic Response Reduction of Buildings Considering Soil-Structure Interaction Effect
    (Springer, 2025) Roozbahan, Mostafa; Masnata, Chiara; Turan, Guersoy; Pirrotta, Antonina
    Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) and Tuned Liquid Column Dampers (TLCDs) are widely recognized passive vibration control devices used to reduce structural vibrations. While TMDs have been extensively studied for mitigating the seismic responses of multi-story buildings considering Soil-Structure Interaction (SSI), the efficiency of TLCDs in these conditions remains largely unexplored. Furthermore, a direct comparison of these devices under similar conditions has not been conducted. Then, to address these gaps, this study investigates the efficiency of TLCDs and compares them to TMDs in reducing seismic-induced vibrations, focusing on the influence of SSI. The control performance of both devices depends on various parameters, primarily the frequency and damping ratios. Therefore, the Mouth Brooding Fish (MBF) metaheuristic algorithm is applied to optimize these parameters, accounting for SSI effects. To evaluate the different efficiency between TMDs and TLCDs under SSI conditions, three types of shear buildings are considered: an eight-story, a sixteen-story and a forty-story structure. The seismic responses of the uncontrolled, TMD-controlled, and TLCD-controlled buildings are examined under twenty-two far-field and fourteen near-field earthquakes, considering both fixed-base and flexible-base scenarios. Results indicate that while both devices significantly reduce seismic responses, TMDs generally outperform TLCDs, particularly in taller buildings where the impact of SSI is more significant. Further, this study highlights that neglecting SSI in the design of these devices may lead to an overestimation of their effectiveness, especially in softer soils, emphasizing the importance of considering SSI in the optimization process for accurate and reliable outcomes.

    Effect 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.
