Abstract
This study investigates the performance of a building
model equipped with a tuned liquid damper through a series of shaking table
tests under varying excitation directions. To assess directional effects, the
model was rotated in 15-degree increments from 0° to 180°, while the excitation
direction remained fixed. Acceleration and displacement time histories were
recorded for each orientation to evaluate the damper’s effectiveness. The
results demonstrate that the TLD effectively reduced both accelerations and
displacements of the structure. However, its efficiency declined progressively
as the excitation angle increased from 0° to 90°.
