Abstract

It is a very known issue that tuned mass dampers (TMDs) on an effective system for structures subjected to earthquake excitations. TMDs can be also used as a protective system for adjacent structures that may pound to each other. With a suitable optimization methodology, it is possible to find an optimally tuned TMD that is effective in reducing the responses of structure with an additional protective feature that reduces the amount of required seismic gap between adjacent structures by using an objective function. This function considers the displacement of structures with respect to each other. As the optimization methodology, the flower pollination algorithm (FPA) is used in finding the optimum parameters of TMDs of both structures. The method was evaluated on two 10-story adjacent structures and the optimum results were compared with harmony search (HS) based methodology.
