In recent years the concept and the underpinning technology of the inerter, a mechanical element that resists relative acceleration, attracted significant attention in improving passive dynamic vibration absorbers and energy dissipation devices used for mitigating earthquake and wind induced vibrations to building structures. In the case of dynamic vibration absorbers, inerter devices act as mass …
