This study reports experimental results on an inerter eddy current damper incorporated into a base-isolated multi-degree-of-freedom structure. The secondary vibratory system comprising a dynamic mass (inerter) produced by the disk type eddy current damper and undesirable flexibility of damper connecting member is considered. The simple formula in the literature to calculate the damping coefficient of an eddy current damper demonstrated its accuracy.
