Pounding Tuned Mass Damper: A Novel Device for Passive Structural Vibration Control
Publication: Earth and Space 2021
ABSTRACT
This paper presents state-of-art of a novel vibration control device, namely the pounding tuned mass damper (PTMD). The PTMD basically introduces a single side or double side delimiter covered with viscoelastic material to the classical tuned mass damper (TMD). The delimiter serves two purposes: (1) to restrain the stroke of the tuned mass; and (2) to enhance the energy dissipation. The so-called PTMD is also a integration of the traditional TMD and the impact damper (ID). Consequently, it has two vibration control mechanisms: (1) when the overall vibration amplitude of the main structure is relatively small, the tuned mass generates initial force to control the vibration of the main structure; and (2) when the excitation is large enough, the tuned mass will collide on the delimiters and dissipation energy via impacts. The two combined vibration control mechanisms have improved the effectiveness of the PTMD and its robustness against detuning effects. This paper summarizes recent investigations on this damping device. The schematics and the features of the PTMD are provided. Applications of PTMD in vibration control of a variety of structures are also presented. In the last part, suggestions for future works are provided.
