Tuned liquid column ball damper for seismic vibration control
Tuned liquid column damper (TLCD) is a passive control device for vibration control of structures. Recently, the tuned liquid column ball damper (TLCBD) has been introduced for performance enhancement over the original TLCD. In this paper, the efficiency of the TLCBD is assessed under random earthquake events. The response of a single‐degree‐of‐freedom system with TLCBD is evaluated by stochastic analysis and compared with the TLCD. The study reveals significantly improved performance of TLCBD over TLCD in terms of reducing response of the structure as well as the liquid column. The performance largely hinges on the optimum tuning ratio and the ball‐to‐tube diameter ratio values, which are proposed herein. The parametric studies establish the performance robustness of the TLCBD under loading and parametric variations. Furthermore, the accuracy of the optimal stochastic responses is verified through deterministic response analysis under recorded seismic motions. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
