Closed-Form Design Equations for Controlling Vibrations in Connected Structures
In this article, derivation of closed-form equations for solving the vibration control problem of two adjacent connected structures is presented. The closed-form solution is derived for a passive control method, where the structures are connected via a stiffness and damping element in parallel. The design of the connection elements is based on minimizing the absolute displacement transmissibility of the connected structures when ground acceleration is the input. The method is demonstrated for two connected multi-story buildings subject to the El Centro earthquake ground motion. Results show that the response of the connected buildings is reduced relative to the unconnected case.
