Performance-Based Placement Design of Tuned Electromagnetic Inertial Mass Dampers

This paper presents a performance-based placement design method for the control of the earthquake responses of a multistory building using tuned electromagnetic inertial mass dampers (T-EIMDs). The T-EIMD consists of a ball screw mechanism, a gear, a flywheel, and an electric generator installed in...
