Abstract

This paper investigates vibration suppression effect of tuned multi-mass damper with uneven weights Tuned multi-mass damper (TMMD) is made of plural tuned mass dampers (TMDs). It is already known that TMMD achieves higher vibration suppression effect than a single big TMD even the total weights of auxiliary masses of TMMD is equal with that of TMD. Besides, most studies about TMMD suppose that all the weights of auxiliary masses are even. In this study, a novel TMMD with uneven weights of auxiliary massess is presented and its vibration suppression effect is dealt with. Computer simulations are carried out and the possibility to enhance robustness of TMMD is suggested.
