The authors have conducted full-scale dynamic tests of the largest force-restricted tuned viscous mass damper (FRTVMD), and analyses of a single-degree-of-freedom structure incorporated with the FRTVMD. A comparison verified the validity of the linearization method for a non-linear viscous element in the FRTVMD.
