Pendulum-tuned mass dampers (PTMDs) are attractive to control horizontal vibrations in buildings. In addition to their performance, they present relatively low cost, and they are easy to install and maintain. Nevertheless, PTMD may be too long when the fundamental frequency of the host structure is...
