Tuned Mass Dampers for Response Reduction of a Reinforced Concrete Chimney Under Near-Fault Pulse-Like Ground Motions

The article investigates response mitigation of a reinforced concrete (RC) chimney subjected to pulse-like near-fault ground motions using tuned mass damper (TMD) schemes. The total height of the chimney is 265 m with a mass of 11,109 ton. Three TMD schemes are used: single tuned mass damper (STMD),...
