As one of the most traditional vibration mitigation devices, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) are applied widely in aseismic protection of building structures. The control effect of a passive TMD is depended on its parameters, especially the frequency ratio. Nevertheless, passive TMDs are high sensitive to...
