Structural control techniques are widely used to reduce the maximum values of the vibrations caused by strong earthquakes and winds and to rapidly dampen them. Among them, passive control systems have been used effectively to protect structural and non-structural elements from the destructive effects of earthquakes in the past quarter-century. Tuned mass dampers (TMD) that are part of passive control systems have been widely used in civil structures with their alternative benefits. In this study, the optimal adjustment of the parameters of a passive TMD placed on the top floor of the 10-story symmetrical structure was performed by a metaheuristic method called Jaya algorithm. The structural model was modeled in the SAP2000 finite element analysis software to obtain mass and stiffness properties. The results of the numerical analysis showed that the optimization of the TMD parameters is highly effective in reducing the total shear forces of the base of the full-size frame structures and reducing displacement in the event of seismic loads.

Via several cases of study it is shown that a passive multivariable linear control system, contrary to its single input single output counterpart, may not be robust. Moreover, it is shown that lack of robustness can be exposed via the multivariable structure function.
