Abstract

In order to research the seismic behaviour and effective vibration control strategy for the wind turbine tower and electrical transmission tower, shake table tests on reduced-scale wind turbine tower model and electrical transmission tower model were carried out at the State Key Laboratory of Disaster Reduction in Civil Engineering, Tongji University. Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) systems were applied for reducing the seismic responses of the model towers. Experimental results of both model tests are presented in this paper. The test results indicate that the TMD systems are remarkable in seismic responses reduction for the wind turbine tower and electrical transmission tower, and can be widely used for engineering application.
