Structural vibration control through Tuned Liquid Column Dampers: theoretical and experimental analysis
Performance and optimal design of Tuned Mass Damper Inerter for base isolated systems
In this paper, the use of a Tuned Mass Damper Inerter to mitigate the seismic response of a base-isolated structure is studied and compared to other passive control devices. The control performance of four different types of hybrid passive control strategies aiming to reduce base displacements of isolated buildings is investigated. Specifically, the Tuned Mass Damper (TMD), the Tuned Liquid Column Damper (TLCD), and finally, the Tuned Mass Damper Inerter, each one associated to a Base Isolated structure (BI system) have been considered. This study has been carried out using as optimal design parameters of the TMDI those estimated by a proposed direct optimization procedure, considering a wh…
A variant design of Tuned Mass Damper Inerter for reducing displacements of base isolated structures
2021
In this study an innovative passive control strategy, referred to as New Tuned Mass Damper Inerter (New TMDI), coupled with a base isolation system (BI), is presented with the aim of reducing displacements in base isolated structures subject to seismic actions. The proposed New TMDI employs the synergetic benefits of a recently developed non-traditional Tuned Mass Damper (known as New TMD) and an inerter device to achieve higher control performances in isolated structures. Specifically, the New TMD is a secondary mass system connected to the BI system by a spring and to the ground by a dashpot. In addition, in the New TMDI configuration, the inerter device is placed in parallel with the dam…
Stochastic response of beams equipped with tuned mass dampers subjected to Poissonian loads
2019
This contribution deals with the vibrational response of Euler-Bernoulli beams equipped with tuned mass dampers, subjected to random moving loads. The theory of generalised functions is used to capture the discontinuities of the response variables at the positions of the tuned mass dampers, which involves deriving exact complex eigenvalues and eigenfunctions from a characteristic equation built as the determinant of a 4 x 4 matrix, regardless of the number of tuned mass dampers. Building pertinent orthogonality conditions for the deflection eigenfunctions, the stochastic responses, under Poissonian white noise, are evaluated. In a numerical application, a beam with multiple tuned mass dampe…
Aflatoxinas, tricotecenos de tipo A y hongos productores en maíz y avena. Nuevos antifúngicos y su impacto en salud
2021
Los hongos filamentosos están ampliamente distribuidos en la naturaleza y existen especies causantes de infecciones en el hombre, animales o plantas, o productores de micotoxinas que pueden ocasionar intoxicaciones agudas o crónicas. Los hongos toxigénicos pertenecen principalmente a los géneros Aspergillus, Fusarium y Penicillium. El cambio climático facilita la adaptación de especies toxigénicas a nuevas condiciones de estrés térmico/hídrico, lo cual afecta a su distribución geográfica en cultivos básicos, como los cereales. Ello facilita la dominancia de las especies mejor adaptadas, lo que se traduce en la emergencia de ciertas micotoxinas en los cereales como las aflatoxinas (AF) o tri…

Aportación de nuevas metodologías multitécnica en el estudio y conservación de patrimonio numismático de procedencia subacuática
2019
Este trabajo presenta un estudio del estado de conservación de monedas con base de cobre procedente del Museo Nacional de Arqueología Subacuática. La metodología multitécnica incluye instrumentación convencional como microscopía óptica, espectroscopia FTIR y técnicas avanzadas nanoinvasivas como voltamperometría de micropartículas y haz de iones focalizados-FESEM-EDX. Así se ha podido identificar el tipo de aleación, productos de corrosión, depósitos superficiales y antiguas intervenciones. Cabe señalar la identificación de mecanismos de alteración atípicos como la formación de complejos carboxilados de iones metálicos generados en los procesos electroquímicos de corrosión del metal o aleac…

Structural Vibration Control for a Class of Connected Multistructure Mechanical Systems
2012
Published version of an article from the journal: Mathematical Problems in Engineering. Also available from the publisher:http://dx.doi.org/10.1155/2012/942910 A mathematical model to compute the overall vibrational response of connected multistructure mechanical systems is presented. Using the proposed model, structural vibration control strategies for seismic protection of multibuilding systems can be efficiently designed. Particular attention is paid to the design of control configurations that combine passive interbuilding dampers with local feedback control systems implemented in the buildings. These hybrid active-passive control strategies possess the good properties of passive contro…
