Description
This dataset provides the raw responses in Excel (in Volts) of microelectromechnical and piezo-electric accelerometers positioned on the structural model and equivalent shear beam (ESB) container used to conduct the centrifuge tests considered in ‘Tuned mass damper positioning effects on the seismic response of a soil-MDOF-structure system’ in the Journal of Earthquake Engineering. Fig. 4 in the accompanying research paper shows a layout of all instrument positions in the model. The calibration factors (g/V) of all accelerometers are provided below. Multiplication of the raw response (V) by the calibration factor (g/V) results in acceleration response (g).
Instrument (-) / Calibration Factor (g/V):
- P6 / 6.32 (upper storey response for configurations 1-3)
- P6 / 51.28 (upper storey response for configuration 4)
- P6 / 52.29 (upper storey response for configurations 5-6)
- P3 / 7.06 (vertical structural base input for configuration 1)
- P1 / 6.77 (ESB input for configurations 1-3)
- P1 / 7.73 (ESB input for configuration 4)
- P1 / 4.97 (ESB input for configurations 5-6)
The raw data was recorded in centrifuge tests conducted with the Turner beam centrifuge facilities available at the Schofield Centre (High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge, CB3 0EL). Below is a list of the file names of the instrument response recordings, what they have recorded and which figure(s) in the accompanying research paper they relate to:
