# I. Introduction a) General arthquakes are one of the most destructive of natural hazards. Earthquake occurs due to sudden transient motion of the ground as a result of release of energy in a matter of few seconds. The impact of the event is most traumatic because it affects large area, occurs all of a sudden and unpredictable. Vibrations induced in the earth's crust due to internal or external causes that virtually shake up a part of the crust and all the structures and living and non-living things existing on it they can cause large scale loss of life, property and disrupts essential services such as water supply, sewerage systems, communication, power and transport etc. The aftermath leads to destabilize the economic and social structure of the nation. The primary objective of earthquake resistant design is to prevent building collapse during earthquakes thus minimizing the risk of death or injury to people in or around those buildings. Earthquake forces are generated by the dynamic response of the building to earthquake induced ground motion. This makes earthquake actions Structural control is a diverse field of study. Structural control is one area of current research that looks promising in attaining reduce structural vibrations during loading such as earthquakes and strong winds. The reducing of structural vibrations occurs by adding a mechanical system that is installed in a structure. Structural control for civil structures was born out of a need to provide safer and more efficient designs with the reality of limited resources. The purpose of structural control is to absorb and to reflect the energy introduced by dynamic loads such as winds, waves, earthquakes and traffic. Today, the protection of civil structures from severe dynamic loading is typically achieved by allowing the structures to be damaged. E=Ek+Es+Eh+Ed (1.1) Where E is the total energy input to the structure from the excitation, Ek is the kinetic energy of the structure, Es is the elastic strain energy of the structure, Eh is the energy of the structure dissipated due to inelastic deformation (e.g, allowing damage to the structure), and Ed is the energy dissipated by supplemental damping devices. For traditional structures, the right hand side of the equation (1.1) includes only Ek, Es and Eh. By including the energy term Ed through structural control, the energy dissipated by supplemental damping devices, the kinetic, elastic and most importantly, the inelastic deformation energy can be reduced, preserving the primary structures. There are three primary classes of supplemental damping devices, categorized into three corresponding control strategies. The first class of supplemental damping devices is passive. Passive devices are noncontrollable and require no power. The second class of supplemental damping devices is active. Active devices are controllable, but requires significant power to operate. The third class of supplemental damping devices is semi active. Semi active devices combine the positive aspects of passive and active control devices in that they are controllable (like the active devices) but require little power to operate. c) The Effect of Different Values of ?, the Velocity Exponent Figure 1.1 shows the hysteresis loop of a pure linear viscous damper when subjected to a sinusoidal input. The loop is a perfect ellipse. The absence of storage stiffness makes the natural frequency of a structure incorporated with the damper remain the same. This advantage will simplify the design procedure for a structure with supplemental viscous dampers. # d) Placement of FVDs in a structure Having determined the target building performance and required damping contribution to the response, the designer must identify appropriate locations to install the dampers. Often this is in the form of diagonal braces in which the damper device is placed in-line with the brace member. However as demonstrated by Constantinou et al. [1] and ?igaher and Constantinou [2], there are a many configurations that could be considered which can avoid significant architectural and functional compromise. The key point is that the damper must connect to points in the structure that have differential motion when the building sways. This motion can be either horizontal or vertical depending on the primary lateral force resisting system and the inherent deformed shape of the structure. The use of 'toggle-brace' configurations can significantly increase the velocity applied to the damper using geometric amplification as shown in figure 1.3, and this corresponds to improved efficiency of the damper in terms of lateral force resistance and energy dissipation. Such setups can be used to reduce the size of the damper, or improve the damping effect on the structure. It should be noted however that experimental studies on toggle setups have generally not achieved the calculated efficiencies due to the brace and connection flexibility reducing the velocity amplification. Jinkoo K. and B. Sunghyuk [3] they investigated on appropriate plan-wise distribution of viscoelastic dampers to minimize the torsional responses of an asymmetric structure, with one axis of symmetry subjected to an earthquake-induced dynamic motion. The modal characteristic equations of a single-storey asymmetric structure with four corner columns and added viscoelastic dampers were derived, and a parametric study was performed to identify the design variables that influence the torsional responses. Based on the results of parametric study, a simple and straightforward methodology to find out the optimum eccentricity of added VED to compensate for the torsional effect of a plan-wise asymmetric structure was developed using modal coefficients. The results indicate that the torsional response of asymmetric structures can be reduced significantly following the proposed method, and that the viscoelastic dampers turn out to be more effective than viscous dampers in controlling torsional response of a plan-wise asymmetric building structure. Diclelia, M. and A. Mehta [4] they studied of seismic performance of steel chevron braced frames (CBFs) with and without viscous fluid dampers (VFDs) as a function of the intensity and frequency characteristics of the ground motion and VFD parameters. For this purpose, comparative nonlinear time history (NLTH) analyses of single and multiple story CBFs with and without VFDs are conducted using ground motions with various frequency characteristics scaled to represent small, moderate and large intensity earthquakes. Additionally, NLTH analyses of single and multiple story CBFs with VFDs are conducted to study the effect of the damping ratio and velocity exponent of the VFD on the seismic performance of the frames. The analysis results revealed that the seismic performance of the CBFs without VFDs is very poor and sensitive to the frequency characteristics and intensity of the ground motion due to brace buckling effects. Installing VFDs into the CBFs significantly improved their seismic performance by maintaining their elastic behavior. Furthermore, VFDs with smaller velocity exponents and larger damping ratio are observed to be more effective in improving the seismic performance of the CBFs. However, VFDs with damping ratios larger than 50% do not produce significant additional improvement in the seismic performance of the CBFs. Lap-Loi et al [5] they investigated on Optimal design theory for linear tuned mass dampers (TMD) has been thoroughly investigated, but is still under development for nonlinear TMDs. In this paper, optimization procedures in the time domain are proposed for design of a TMD with nonlinear viscous damping. A dynamic analysis of a structure implemented with a nonlinear TMD is conducted first. Optimum design parameters for the nonlinear TMD are searched using an optimization method to minimize the performance index. The feasibility of the proposed optimization method is illustrated numerically by using the Taipei 101 structure implemented with TMD. The sensitivity analysis shows that the performance index is less sensitive to the damping coefficient than to the frequency ratio. Time history analysis is conducted using the Taipei 101 structure implemented with different TMDs under wind excitation. For both linear and nonlinear TMDs, the comfort requirements for building occupants are satisfied as long as the TMD is properly designed. It was found that as the damping exponent increases, the relative displacement of the TMD decreases but the damping force increases. Providakis, C.P [6] has studied isolation is a quite sensible structural control strategic design in reducing the response of a structural system induced by strong ground motions. It is clear that the effects of near-fault (NF) ground motions with large velocity pulses can bring the seismic isolation devices to critical working conditions. In the present paper, nonlinear time history analyses were performed using a commercial structural analysis software package to study the influence of isolation damping on base and superstructure drift. Various lead-rubber bearing (LRB) isolation systems are systematically compared and discussed for aseismic performances of two actual reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. Parametric analysis of the buildings fitted with isolation devices is carried out to choose the appropriate design parameters. Dong-dong et al [7] studied the dynamic response analysis of damper connected adjacent multi storey structures with uncertain parameters. They considered uncertainities of mass and stiffness firstly. The ground acceleration is represented by Kanai-Tajimi filtered non-stationary process. The mean square random responses of structural displacement and storey drift are chosen as the optimization objectives. The variations of mean square responses of top floor displacements and bottom storey drifts in neighboring structures with the damper stiffness and damping coefficient are analyzed in detail. Through the parametric study, the acquiring optimum parameters of damper are regarded as numerical results. A comparative study proves that the optimal theoretical values of damper parameters are very close to those through extensive numerical parametric studies. The theory results are calculated using the first natural frequencies and the total mass of the adjacent deterministic structures with mean parameters. To mitigate the mean square random responses of displacement, acceleration and inter storey drift in adjacent structures, the performance of connecting dampers is investigated. The numerical results demonstrate that coupling adjacent structures is an effective means of protection for flexible building structures. Huangshang and Linuo [7] carried out work to obtain the optimal parameters of dampers linking adjacent structures for seismic mitigation, two SDOF systems connected with visco-elastic damper (VED) are taken as research object and the primary structural vibration frequency ratio, connection stiffness and linking damping ratio as research parameters. Modified Kanai-Tajimi spectrum is selected to model the earthquake excitation. Finally, the seismic responses of example structures with or without connecting dampers are contrastively analyzed. The dependence of response mitigation effective on research parameters is highlighted. The results indicate fine earthquake reduction effectiveness of dampers connecting structures. It is also showed that optimal parameters of damper cannot reduce the seismic responses of the primary structures connected to the best extent simultaneously. Based on the studies they concluded that the seismic responses of both buildings could be considerably reduced if damper parameters are selected appropriately and the seismic mitigation effects are affected by the dynamic characteristics of adjacent structures are different enough. Finally the seismic reduction effect of the softer building can be more enhanced than that of the stiffer building by installing VFD's. Sadeghi Balkanlou et al [8] investigated dampers position and optimizing their position at the height of the structure are studied. It investigates about viscous damper systems and their effects on seismic behavior of multistory structures and determines effects of damper system position on structure height using uniform distribution and SSSA methods. In this research, three 4, 8, 12storey steel structure frames were selected as the understudy models. The models were designed and analyzed based on available Codes to represent a sample of available structures. To evaluate effects of specific features of damper system, two 15% and 25% target values were considered for effective damping ratio of the damper system such that the results serve as representative of appropriate spectrum of conventional features of damper system. Following time history analyses on the models created under three earthquake records which were caled according to spectrum design of Iran 2800 Code-3rd Ed. Raveesh R M and Sahana T S [9] investigated evaluate effect of tuned mass dampers on the structural response of multistorey RC frame structures subjected to implemental dynamic analysis. A multistorey RC frame structure buildings having a ratio of height to breadth from 1, 2 and 3 is used in this study. The models were used to represent buildings located in zone 5 of India. The systemic parameters studied are natural time period, base shear, roof displacement, lateral displacement. A single ground motions were used in the study to generate single record Time v/s Acceleration curves namely BHUJ EARTHQUAKE. These ground motions was scaled to the design spectral acceleration prior to the application. The effect of acceleration is examined in this analysis SAP 2000, a program capable of performing nonlinear dynamic analysis. Based on the analysis results, it has been concluded that the effect of tuned mass dampers plays a significant role to decrease the natural frequency, base shear, roof displacement, lateral displacement, story drift, bending moment and shear force in a multistorey RC framed Structure. # III. Modelling and Seismic Analysis The majority of buildings in which floor diaphragms are sufficiently rigid in their planes, the dynamic analysis can be carried out by using reduced 3D model. This is based on the following assumptions: i. The floors are rigid in their planes having 3 DOF's, to horizontal translations and a single rotation about a vertical axis. ii. The mass of building and mass moment of inertia are lumped at the floor levels at the corresponding degrees of freedom. iii. The inertia forces or movements due to vertical or rotational components of joint motions are negligible, therefore ignored. The simplified model with above assumptions is shown in Fig. 3.1. The dynamic degrees of freedom are drastically reduced by static condensation and yet it produces quite accurate results. In case, the floor diaphragms are not adequately rigid in buildings with very stiff vertically resisting elements such as elevator cores, and diaphragms having large openings, irregular shapes etc., the in-plane rigid assumption is not valid. In such cases, a more complex model with additional degrees of freedom is considered to properly represent in-plane flexibility. The floor slabs in such cases can be idealized as an assemblage of finite elements. # b) Analysis Using Sap 2000 The entire analysis has done for all the 3D models using SAP 2000 nonlinear version software. The results will be tabulated in order to focus the parameters such as time period, base shear, story drift and lateral displacements in linear analysis. c) Response Spectrum Method Dynamic analysis of the building models is performed using SAP 2000. The lateral loads generated by ETABS correspond to the seismic zone V and 5% damped response spectrum given in IS 1893 (Part 1): 2002. The fundamental natural period values are calculated by SAP 2000, by solving the Eigen value problem of the model. Thus, the total earthquake load generated and its distribution along the height corresponds to the mass and stiffness distribution as modeled by SAP 2000. Here, as in the equivalent static analysis, the seismic mass is calculated using full dead load plus 25% of live load. The 5% damped response spectrum is considered for all modes of the building. For the modal combination the square root of sum of squares (SRSS) method is considered, because in this method of modal combination coupling of the modes doesn't take place. For each displacement and force in the structure, the modal combinations produce a single positive results for each direction of acceleration, these directional value for a given response quantity have to be combined to produce a single positive result, and for this directional combination, CQC method is adopted. After defining the response spectrum case, analysis is carried out. Define three static pushover cases. In the first case gravity load is applied to the structure, in the second case lateral load is applied to the structure along X-direction and in the third case lateral load is applied to the structure along Y-direction. # Global The buildings are pushed to a displacement of 4% of height of the building to reach collapse point as per ATC 40 (Applied Technology Council). Tabulate the nonlinear results in order to obtain the inelastic behavior. The effective stiffness of friction damper is (0.2 to 1.2 times the initial stiffness (ki) of the frame structures) and damping coefficient. Initial elastic stiffness of modelled frame structures is determined from nonlinear static analysis (Pushover curve) and damping ratio is a function of structure mass, stiffness and damping ratio. In the present study damping ratio is taken as 5% of the critical value and mass of the frame structure is computed by using total gravity dead loads. Where, Damping Coefficient=? x 2? ? = Damping ratio Ki = Initial stiffness. In the present study reinforced concrete moment resisting frame building of G+20 are considered. The plan layout, elevations and 3D view of all storeyed buildings with and without dampers are as shown in the below Figures. The building is considered to be located in the seismic zone v and intended for commercial purpose. Model-I Building without dampers. Model-II -Building with dampers. The example of buildings considered in the pr esent study is appropriately modeled in SAP 2000 by giving all the required input data mentioned in the APPENDIX A. The building models are analyzed separately as per the analysis methods mentioned in Table 3.1 with respect to the load combinations The fundamental natural periods obtained for the seismic designed building and gravity models have plotted in Fig. 4.1 From the plot it is very clear that, stiffness of the building is directly proportional to its natural frequency and hence inversely proportional to the natural period. That is, if the stiffness of building is increased the natural period goes on decreasing. And as the natural frequency of the taller buildings is high due to the more mass, the natural period goes on increasing for three different multi storied buildings. The comparison of natural period presented in the table or plot shows that, the code IS 1893 (Part-I) 2002 uses empirical formula to calculate natural period which is directly depends on the height of the building. Whereas the analytical procedure calculates the natural period on the basis of mass and stiffness of the building (Eigen value and Eigen vectors). # b) Base Shear In the response spectrum method the design base shear (VB) is made equal to the base shear obtained from equivalent static method V B as per clause 7. The base shear is a function of mass, stiffness, height, and the natural period of the building structure. From the previous results it is very clear that the fundamental natural periods obtained from the code, fall far short from that of the analytical natural periods. And in the equivalent static method design horizontal acceleration value obtained by codal natural period is adopted, and the basic assumption in the equivalent static method is that only first mode of vibration of building governs the dynamics and the effect of higher modes are not significant therefore, higher modes are not considered in this method. Hence base shears obtained from the equivalent static method are larger than the dynamic response spectrum method where in the dynamic response spectrum, all the modes of the building are considered, and first mode governs in the shorter buildings and as the storey increases for tall buildings, the flexibility increases and higher modes come into picture. The base shear for the equivalent static method (VB) and the response spectrum method (V B ) as per IS 1893 (Part 1): 2002 for the various building models are listed in the tables below. (i) Model -I: Building without Damper. (ii) Model -II: Building with Damper. The base shear is a function of mass, stiffness, height, and the natural period of the building structure. Moreover the basic assumption in the equivalent static method is that only first mode of vibration of building governs the dynamics of the structures. In dynamic response spectrum method, all the modes of the building are considered, and the first mode governs in the case of shorter buildings and as the number of storeys increase for tall buildings, the flexibility increases and higher modes come into picture. Hence base shears obtained from the equivalent static method are larger than the base shear obtained from dynamic response spectrum method. The base shear values obtained by equivalent static method are higher than those obtained by Response spectrum method for gravity and seismic analysis for G+20 buildings. # c) Lateral Displacement The lateral displacements obtained for equivalent static method (EQS) and response spectrum method (RSP) for 11 to 21 storey building models, along both X and Y directions are listed in the tables below. In order to account the effect of torsion the displacements are captured in both directions when force is acting in particular direction. This clearly shows that the fluid viscous dampers are effective reducing the storey drift due to seismic loads. As per Clause 7.11.1 of IS 1893 (Part 1)2002 the inter storey drift in any storey should not exceed 0.004 times the storey height. From the results mentioned above it can be observed that Model I, Model II doesn't crosses inter storey drift limits for equivalent static method and also Response spectrum method none of the buildings has crossed the drift limits in any direction for G+20 storey models. From above results for Model I i.e. regular building has got more Storey drifts for G+20 and for Model II (building with fluid viscous dampers) has less storey drift compared to Model-I. The inter storey drift is more at the bottom storey than at the top storey and also as the number of storey increases the relative drift of the storey also increase. The introduction of fluid viscous dampers in the building drastically reduces the inter storey drift in the building. The Present study is focused on the study of Seismic demands of different R.C buildings high rise buildings using various analytical techniques for the buildings located in seismic zone V of India medium soil. The Performance of the building is studied in terms of time period, base shear, lateral displacements, storey drifts in linear static and linear dynamic analysis for with and without fluid viscous dampers building G+20 storey models. The seismic analysis is carried out by equivalent static method and response spectrum method for G+20 storey building with unsymmetrical in plan. The following are the conclusions which can be concluded from the present study, which are as follows. 1. The fundamental natural period of the structure increases due to lesser stiffness of the bare frame buildings compared to buildings having fluid viscous dampers. 2. The base shears due to seismic forces for the building with fluid viscous dampers are more than the base shear obtained for without fluid viscous dampers. 3. Compared to the regular building the storey displacement decreases for the buildings having fluid viscous dampers. Addition of fluid viscous dampers in the building will result in drastic reduction of lateral displacement of the building there by in turn assures the safety of the structure. 4. The storey drift increases in regular building as compared to building having fluid viscous dampers. T h e addition of fluid viscous dampers in the building drastically reduces the inter storey drift when compared to that of building without fluid viscous dampers. 11![Figure 1.1: Hysteresis loop of viscous damperFluid viscous dampers have the unique ability to simultaneously reduce both stress and deflection within a structure subjected to a transient. This is because a fluid viscous damper varies its force only with velocity, which provides a response that is inherently out-ofphase with stresses due to flexing of the structure.
