Innovative base-isolated building with large mass-ratio TMD at basement for greater earthquake resilience

Tuned mass dampers (TMD) have been used for the reduction of building responses to wind loading in many high-rise buildings. An innovative and resilient base-isolated building with a large mass-ratio TMD is introduced here primarily for earthquake loading in which the large mass-ratio TMD is located...
