Vibration Control of Tall Buildings Using Mega SubConfiguration
Open accessAbstract
An innovative vibration-control system is proposed to reduce the dynamic response of tall buildings to wind and seismic loads. This system takes advantage of the so-called megasubstructure configuration, which is especially popular in tall buildings. Substructures contained in the megastructure serve as energy absorbers so that no additional mass is required for the intended vibration control as seen in the conventional mass damper systems. The proposed system naturally resolves the difficulties in augmenting damping capacities of tall buildings associated with the high rigidity and deformation in the dominant bending mode. Dynamic characteristics of the proposed control system including the frequency response and the energy flow are investigated. Optimal values of structural parameters such as the damping ratio and stiffness of the substructure are determined. The feasibility and effectiveness of this unique control system in improving human comfort and protecting structures under both wind and earthquake loads are demonstrated through analytical and numerical analysis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
