Seismic Isolation Performance Evaluation for a Class of Inerter-Based Low-Complexity Isolators

In this paper, the seismic base isolation problem for all low-complexity networks containing one inerter, one spring, and one damper is studied based on a multi-degree-of-freedom model. The analytical solutions for the H2 performance optimization are derived, and the traditional tuned mass damper (T...
