Hybrid Passive Control Strategies for Reducing the Displacements at the Base of Seismic Isolated Structures

In this paper, the use of hybrid passive control strategies to mitigate the seismic response of a base-isolated structure is examined. The control performance of three different types of devices used for reducing base displacements of isolated buildings is investigated. Specifically, the Tuned Mass...
