This paper proposes a tuned liquid column sloshing damper(TLCSD) and presents experimental results to evaluate its control performance. The proposed damper acts as a tuned liquid column damper(TLCD) and a tuned liquid damper(TLD), respectively, in both principal axes of building structures. Shaking table test was performed to grasp its dynamic characteristics. Testing results showed that under inclined incident excitations, a TLCSD used in this study have dynamic characteristics coupled by both TLCD and TLD.

A new type bi-directional damper using a tuned liquid column damper(TLCD) and a tuned sloshing damper(TSD) is introduced in this study. Two dampers are usually needed to reduce wind-induced responses of tall buildings since they are along and across wind ones. The proposed damper has the advantage of controlling both responses with one damper. One of objectives of this study is to derive analytical dynamics to investigate coupled effects due to TLCD and TSD. Another objective is to address the effect of coupled control force due to TLCD and TSD on the dynamic characteristic of the damper based on analytical dynamics. Shaking table test is undertaken to experimentally grasp dynamic characteristics of the damper under white noise excitation. Its dynamic characteristic is expressed by the transfer function from the shaking table acceleration to the control force generated from the damper. Finally, its design parameters are identified based on the coupled dynamics, which include the mass ratio of horizontal liquid column to total liquid for a TLCD, the participation factor of the fundamental liquid sloshing for a TSD and damping ratio for both cases.

Tuned Liquid damper and Tuned Liquid Column are kind of passive mechanical damper which relies on the sloshing of liquid in a rigid tank for suppressing structural vibrations. TLD and TLCD are attributable to several potential advantages - low costs ; easy to install in existing structures : effective even for small-amplitude vibrations. In this paper, the shaking table experiments were conducted to investigate the characteristics of water sloshing motion in TLD (rectangular, circular) and TLCD. The parameter obtained from the experiments were wave height, base shear force and energy dissipation. The shaking table experiments show that the liquid sloshing relies on amplitude of shaking table and frequency of tank. The TLCD was more effective control vibration than TLD.

In this paper, a two-way tuned liquid mass damper(TLMD) using a tuned liquid column damper(TLCD) and a rubber-bearing-type tuned mass damper(TMD) was manufactured for controlling two-way direction acceleration responses of a high-rise building structure. The proposed controlling device behaves as a tuned liquid column damper in one direction and as a tuned mass damper in the other direction. In this study, Performance evaluation of the downscaled model is conducted. The results show that the two-way controllability is behaved independently each other and realscale TLMD applicable to the high-rise building can be designed.

This study deals with the design of a bi-directional damper using a tuned liquid damper(TLD) and a tuned liquid column damper(TLCD) for a SDOF building. Two dampers are usually needed to reduce wind-induced responses of tall buildings since they are along and across wind ones. The proposed damper has the advantage of controlling both responses with a single damper. The damper used in this study behaves as both a TLCD in a specific translational direction and a TLD in the other orthogonal direction. This paper presents experimental verification to confirm its control performance. First, shaking table test is carried out to investigate reducing responses by the damper. Control performance of the damper is expressed by the transfer function from shaking table accelerations to SDOF building ones. Testing results show that the damper reduced bi-directional responses of a SDOF building. Also, it reduced torsion responses.

본 연구에서는 하나의 제어장치로 서로 직교하는 2방향의 건물응답을 동시에 제어할 수 있는 동조액체질량감쇠기(Tuned Liquid Mass Damper; TLMD)를 제안하고 제어성능을 실험적으로 검증하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 TLMD는 한 방향으로는 동조액체기둥감쇠기(Tuned Liquid Column Damper; TLCD) 내부에 채워진 액체의 운동에너지를 이용하여 구조물의 응답을 제어하게 된다. 그리고, 다른 한 방향 즉 TLCD의 직각 방향으로는 LM guide(linear motion guide) 위에 놓인 TLCD 수조와 내부의 액체의 질량을 이용하여 동조질량감쇠기(Tuned Mass Damper; TMD)로 거동하게 함으로써 구조물의 응답을 감소시킨다. 이와 같은 TLMD의 양방향 독립거동 특성을 증명하기 위해 실물크기의 구조물에 설치하여 강제진동실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과, 양방향 모두 대상 구조물의 응답을 감소시키는 것을 확인하여 제안된 TLMD의 효용성을 검증하였다.

본 논문은 건물의 형태와 동적특성을 변화시키지 않고 건물에 부가질량을 설치하여 건물의 진동을 제어하는 방법중 수동형 제진장치인 TLD(tuned liquid damper)와 MTLD(multiple tuned liquid damper)의 진동응답을 감소시키기 위해 진동대를 이용한 성능실험을 실시하였다. 따라서 기존의 형태별(원형, 직사각형) TLD 실험의 실험 데이터를 가지고 가진 진폭(1mm, 3mm, 5mm, 10mm, 20mm) 의 변화에 따른 고유진동수(0.44Hz, 0.55Hz)에 대한 MTLD의 형태별 실험을 통하여 TLD와 MTLD의 진동감소효과에 대한 성능실험을 비교 분석 하였다.

As the structures become larger, higher and more complicated, the demand for safety level has increased. In recent years, TLD(Tuned Liquid Damper) proved to be a successful control tool for reducing structural vibrations. For this reason, the influence of some key parameters of the U-type TLD on the dynamic response is studied. And simple and effectively developed learning control logic is used to control vibration of U type Tuned Liquid Damper system. The purpose of this paper is design optimal control system to deal with unknown errors from non linearity and variation that cost modeling difficulty in complex structure and is followed with the desired behavior. Finally this hybrid control method applied to U type Tuned Liquid Damper structure gives the benefit from better performance of precision and stability of the structure by reducing vibration effect. This research leads to safety design in various structure to robust unspecified foreign disturbances such as windy-load and earthquake.

This paper presents a design of a tuned liquid mass damper(TLMD) for controlling bi-directional response of high-rise building structure subjected to windload. The proposed damper behaves as a tuned mass damper(TMD) of which mass is regarded as the mass of a tuned liquid column damper(TLCD) and the case wall of the TLCD itself in one direction and the TLCD in the other direction. Because the proposed device has coupled design parameter along two orthogonal directions, it is very important to select designing components by optimal fine tuning. In the designing TLMD, for easy maintenance, the rubber-bearing with small springs was applied in TMD direction. In this study, the Songdo New City Tower 1A in Korea, which has been designed and constructed two TLCDs in order to control bi-directional response, was chosen as the model building structure. The results of rotation test proved the effectiveness of bi-directional behavior of TLMD.

In this paper, a tuned liquid1) mass damper(TLMD) was proposed and experimentally investigated on its control performance, which can control bi-axial responses of building structures by using only one device. The proposed TLMD controls the structural response in a specific one direction by using a liquid sloshing of TLCD. Also, the TLMD reduces the response of structures in the other orthogonal direction by behaving as a TMD that uses mass of the container itself and liquid within container of TLCD installed on linear motion guides. Force-vibration tests on a real-sized structure installed with the TLMD were performed to verify its independent behavior in two orthogonal directions. Test results showed that the responses of a structure were considerably reduced by using the proposed TLMD and its usefulness for structural control in two orthogonal directions.
