ABSTRACT A review on research work done in vibration control systems of structures using tuned mass dampers (TMDs) is presented in this paper. The TMDs are categorized as conventional TMDs, pendulum TMDs, Bi-directional TMDs and Tuned liquid mass dampers (TLMD). The theoretical and experimental advancement in tuned mass dampers is presented in this literature review. Among the passive vibration control systems reviewed in this paper, the tuned liquid mass damper comes out to be most promising in contrast with conventional TMDs. KEYWORDS: Tuned Mass Damper, Vibration Control, Pendulum, Bi-Directional & Liquid Mass

installed within the structures can have two significant effects [20]. One can be long term fatigue effect on structures subjected to periodic dynamic loading and other effect can be the human sensitivity due to induced motion. Kareem et al. [10] provides an overview of how structures subjected to excessive vibrations, under the action of wind, results in occupant’s discomfort and discussed the methods to mitigate these vibrations by using aerodynamic tailoring and auxiliary damping devices. Effect of structural vibrations can be reduced by the application of active, passive and hybrid vibration control systems. Passive vibration control system is a well-developed technology, used to control the motion of structure without application of any external force [6]. A device which absorbed dynamic vibrations was invented by Frahm and received a U.S patent in 1909 [19]. Active control method is developed in which energy or force is provided externally to control the structural vibrations [3]. Active TMDs reduces response of vibrations in high-rise buildings generated due to wind loads. Hybrid systems are also being developed which combines the idea of passive control system and active control system using base isolators and active TMDs [4]. Recently semiactive devices are developed which produces control energy by using structural motion, such systems are more energy efficient than active control devices and are used in structures to improve their performance-based design [1]. Few states of the art review paper on vibrational control of structures which provides in-depth research details on passive, active, semi-active and hybrid control systems [5] [12],[2],[22],[24]. Reviewing the valuable research work in field of tuned mass dampers (TMDs) is the main objective of this paper. The TMDs are categorized as: conventional TMDs, pendulum TMDs (PTMDs), bi-directional TMDs (BTMDs) and tuned liquid Conventional Tuned Mass Dampers. In 1909, the first application of TMD, by Frahm, helped ships in reducing their rolling motion. The initial
