Abstract:

Proposed in this paper is a rapid algorithm based on the harmonic excitation method,which is used to calculate the wind-induced vibration ( WIV) of large-scale complex structures under the control of multiple tuned mass dampers ( MTMD) according to the time-historic wind loads obtained in the rigid-model wind tunnel test. Then,by taking the Shenzhen Kingkey Finance Tower ( KFT) with a height of 439 m as a research objective,the WIV response of KFT under the control of single tuned mass damper ( STMD) is analyzed,and the effects of MTMD configuration as well as the natural frequency,damping ratio and mass of STMD on the WIV response are compared and discussed. The results show that ( 1) the proposed rapid algorithm is accurate and effective in calculating the WIV; ( 2) a STMD installed at the top floor can effectively mitigate the WIV of KFT; and ( 3) though STMD is more effective than MTMD with the same total TMD mass,MTMD can still reduce the peak acceleration of WIV response at the top of the building by about 30%.
