Hybrid mass dampers using two types of electric servomotors AC servomotors and linear induction servomotors.

A hybrid mass damper (HMD) using an electric servomotor for vibration control of buildings has been developed. The developed HMD has been installed in three buildings in order to improve habitability during strong winds and small to moderate earthquakes. We speculated that its high performance, comp...
