Özet

Passive dampers are devices that are frequently used in structural control with their features. One of the most effective methods in reducing the response of the structure to seismic excitations is to adjust the mass amount of the dampers. In this study, the performance of a passive tuned liquid damper (TLD) device placed on a single-story structure under seismic excitations at different structure mass ratios was analyzed. For this purpose, the tuned liquid damper device parameters are optimized with the Jaya algorithm to minimize the movement of the structure under seismic excitations for various mass ratios ranging from 1% to 40%. When the results are examined, it has been determined that increasing the structure mass ratio can reduce the displacement and total acceleration up to 60%.
