Araz, Onur
This work introduces a framework for the optimal design of inerter-assisted series tuned mass dampers (STMDI) placed at the top story of a multi-story building under ground motion and performs comparative research to assess its effectiveness against conventional TMDI. The identical inertance ratio and total mass ratio are taken into consideration for the optimization of both control systems. In the frequency-domain analysis, the five design variables of the STMDI are optimized based on the minimization of the peak amplitude of the displacement transfer function at the top story of the building using the genetic algorithm (GA). The optimized variables are damping ratios (ξ1and ξ2), tuning frequency ratios (f1and f2), and mass ratio of the first to second TMD mass (µh). The proposed control system is applied to a 4-story, an 8-story, and a 16-story case-studies, and the optimal parameters are verified using eighty-five historical benchmark earthquakes in time domain analysis. These records are divided into three different groups according to their frequency content, i.e. PGA/PGV ratio: high, intermediate, and low. The results demonstrate that the STMDI performs better than the TMDI at the same mass and inertance ratio, especially at excitation frequencies close to resonance. The most important advantage of STMDI compared to TMDI is that it provides this performance in a wider frequency range and in an almost similar way. Finally, the seismic performances of STMDI and TMDI are compared considering ground motions with different frequency content.

Araz, Onur
The dynamic responses of the buildings and the optimum parameters of tuned mass damper inerter (TMDI) may change significantly when soil-structure interaction (SSI) is considered. Thus, it is necessary to consider the effect of the SSI in the optimization of TMDI. The study aims at proposing a methodology for optimization of TMDI parameters in reducing maximum structural responses of a high-rise building under earthquake considering the SSI effects. The equations of motion for time-domain analysis are derived for obtaining seismic-induced vibrations of a multi-story shear building with TMDI when the SSI is considered. An improved particle swarm optimization (IPSO) is used to obtain the optimum parameters. The aim of the optimization is to reduce the amplitude of the acceleration transfer function (ATF). The effectiveness of the optimally designed TMDI is assessed for twelve earthquake records with different frequency contents. The effect of the different mass ratios (µ), inertance ratios (β) and support conditions on control performance of the TMDI are investigated in detail. Numerical results proved that the SSI effect and the inertance ratio have a significant impact on the optimal design and effectiveness of the TMDI. From the seismic analysis results, it is seen that the controlled displacement response usually increases with the increase in the inertia ratio for both the fixed and flexible foundation, and a lower seismic response is obtained in the building controlled by TMD compared with the TMDI with different inertance ratios.
