- Abstract
In order to make full use of the advantages of PD (particle damper) and TLD (tuned liquid damper) technologies, a new kind of damping system combining these two already-existing dampers is proposed and was named as PDAL (tuned particle damper with additional liquid). A shaking table test of a steel frame structure with a PDAL system is conducted here for the purpose of vibration control analysis. The results of the test demonstrate well the reliability and effectiveness of the PDAL system under various seismic waves. Seismic responses (mainly acceleration value) are investigated thoroughly for parameter analysis based on the experimental data, and some suggestions are proposed for future designs, including the necessity for parameter optimization and awareness of the dynamic characteristic changes that might occur in actual structures if attached with a PDAL system. This paper constitutes a preliminary study for the PDAL system, and it can serve as a baseline and conceptual reference for future investigations.
