Under ground excitations resulting from strong earthquakes, structures
suffer from high magnitude vibration motions that may be dangerous or
disturbing for people. For that reason, several structural control systems have
been proposed. Two of these systems are tuned mass dampers (TMD) and tuned
liquid dampers (TLCDs). In this study, these two systems were compared by
making dynamic analyses of structures under earthquake ground motions. For
tuning of these systems, classical methods are used. The TLD system was
considered as a simplified two degree of freedom model that consists of the
motions non-sloshing and sloshing.
