Influence of Tuned Liquid Dampers on Plastic Deformations and Residual Displacements of Reinforced Concrete Buildings under Seismic Excitation
Control systems such as base isolators and dampers are widely used to reduce the seismic energy input to structures. Among passive control devices, Tuned Liquid Dampers (TLDs) mitigate structural vibrations through sloshing of the contained liquid, which generates counteracting inertial forces without requiring externa...
