Abstract

Abstract: Current styles in the construction industry demand tall and light buildings, which are also flexible and low-cost. This increases the chances of failure and problems from the point of view of usability. Many modern methods are available to reduce structural vibration, with many vibration control strategies, the idea of using the new TMD. This study was conducted to study the efficacy of using TMD in controlling structural movement. Initially a numerical algorithm was developed to investigate the response of a shear structure containing TMD. Next another numerical algorithm was developed to investigate the response of an independent 2D model programmed with TMD. Three slow loading methods used. The first was a sinusoidal upload, the second was in line with the corresponding timeline according to IS-1894 (Part -1): 2002 with 5% erosion (PGA = 1g) and the third was 1940 El Centro Earthquake Record (PGA) = 0.313g). From research it has been found that TMD can be used effectively to control building vibrations. TMD worked best when the softness of the structure was low. Gradually increase the magnitude of the effects of TMD on the gradual decline in the response to structural migration.
