One of the applications where TLDs are of great interest is in the case of industrial chimneys since these structures often have a very low natural frequency, which can be easily achieved in a control device of this type. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the behaviour of an annular TLD composed of multiple cells through laboratory tests and investigate if it is adequate to design it as an agglomeration of smaller rectangular TLDs. The influence of the amplitude of displacement on the behaviour of the annular TLD will also be analysed. The tests were performed on a shaking table and recurring with pendulums of the same length but of different masses. Three reservoirs were studied as TLDs: a rectangular one, a cell of an annular TLD and a quarter-ring of an annular TLD. This study concluded that the analytical methods developed in previous studies were, in general, adequate for the design of a rectangular TLD and that it was reasonable to design the annular TLD studied as a combination of rectangular ones, as its cells were a close match to a rectangle of similar dimensions. It was also concluded that a compartmentalised annular TLD is an adequate solution for the vibration control of structures with high displacements.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s24092800","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,29]],"date-time":"2024-04-29T08:49:24Z","timestamp":1714380564000},"page":"2800","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Experimental Testing on Tuned Liquid Dampers for Implementation in Industrial Chimneys"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Giancarlo","family":"Marulli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"CONSTRUCT, ViBest, Faculty of Engineering (FEUP), University of Porto, R.
