    This document discusses using tuned liquid column dampers (TLCD) and tuned liquid column ball dampers (TLCBD) as overhead water tanks to mitigate seismic vibrations in tall buildings. TLCD uses orifice plates to control head loss and tune the damper, while TLCBD uses a moving ball inside a horizontal tube. The research aims to model and compare the performance of TLCD and TLCBD in reducing seismic vibrations using MATLAB. Replacing overhead water tanks with these passive dampers could save space, reduce additional load, and lower costs.

    Abstract: Advancement of technology and increasing population in rural areas has led to
    absolute land spaces, thus construction of tall buildings is the only solution for these vast
    growing population. These tall structures are susceptible to experience earthquake loads also
    called seismic excitation. Tuned liquid column damper (TLCD) and tuned liquid column ball
    damper (TLCBD) are one of the most effective passive control devices used to mitigate
    seismic vibrations on tall buildings, these dampers have water sloshing criteria to counteract
    the seismic responses, it is effective when the devices are properly tuned with the structure.
    TLCD is tuned by means of orifice plates to control head loss and TLCBD is tuned by the
    moving ball inside the horizontal tube portion. The main objective of the research is to
    mitigate the seismic vibration by implementing TLCD and TLCBD and are compared with
    each other for best performance. The mathematical modelling of the structure with damper
    was modelled in MATLAB software. The motive is to replace the overhead water tank with
    the passive dampers that will save the space, additional load and cost effective.

    Keywords: TLCD, TLCBD, seismic vibration, tall building, MATLAB.
