Theoretical Modeling of TLD With Different Tank Geometries Using Linear Long Wave Theory

Abstract This study focuses on the modeling of tuned liquid dampers (TLDs) with triangular-bottom, sloped-bottom, parabolic-bottom, and flat-bottom tanks using the linear long wave theory. The energy dissipated by damping screens is modeled theoretically utilizing the method of virtual work. In this proposed model, only the fundamental sloshing mode is considered, and the assumption of small free surface fluid response …
