Abstract: High-rise buildings are more susceptible to vibrations caused by wind loads, earthquakes, and other dynamic forces. Excessive vibrations may cause discomfort to occupants and structural damage. The Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) is an effective vibration control device that mitigates structural responses by tuning its frequency close to that of the primary structure. This paper presents an analytical study of vibration control in multi-storey buildings using TMDs. The objective is to enhance the seismic and wind performance of structures by optimizing the damper’s mass, damping ratio, and tuning frequency. The study reviews various modeling techniques, simulation results, and practical applications to demonstrate the effectiveness of TMD systems in improving the overall stability and safety of multi-storey buildings.

Keywords: Tuned Mass Damper (TMD), Vibration Control, Seismic Response, Structural Dynamics, Civil Engineering, Multi-Storey Building.
