Seismic Vibration Mitigation of Wind Turbine Tower Using Bi-Directional Tuned Mass Dampers

Wind turbines have been increasingly erected in earthquake regions to harvest abundant wind energy. However, the wind turbine tower is slender and lightly damping, which exhibits high susceptibility to earthquake-induced vibration. It is challenging to mitigate the seismic vibration of the tower. In...
