Abstract
A Tuned Liquid column Damper (TLCD) performance depends on the TLCD natural frequency and damping ratio. Theoretically, the TLCD natural frequency is determined by its dimension and the length of fluid inside TLCD column. The damping ratio of TLCD is influenced by several factors such as friction between the fluid and TLCD column, TLCD junction angle and a built-in orifice plate with a small opening. In this research, the effect of TLCD junction angle to its performance in reducing the structural response is evaluated by varying the TLCD angle from 30° to 90°. An experimental model of two DOF shear structure with TLCD is governed to evaluate the TLCD performance. The experimental results show that a TLCD with junction angle 60° filled with 325 ml water is better than others in reducing the vibration response of a two DOF shear structure.
