Abstract: The present work explores the utilization of the tuned mass damper-inerter (TMDI) in controlling the structural response subjected to wind and earthquake excitations. An example of a 25-storey reinforced concrete building is taken up. The equations of motion of the structure-TMDI combined system are established by assuming the building behaves as a shear-building with multiple degrees of freedom. These equations are solved using Newmark's time integration method. The objective functions are the wind- and earthquake-induced structural response quantities, such as the maximum inter-storey drift ratio (MIDR) and peak floor acceleration (PFA). The prime contribution of this study is the inclusion of statistical measures such as the mean, 85th, and 95th percentiles for these quantities. A genetic algorithm-based multi-objective optimization is performed to estimate the optimum TMDI parameters. Based on the outcomes of this study, it can be recommended that the TMDI be optimized to perform well under the 95th percentile for MIDR and PFA in effectively reducing the peak structural responses. Frequency domain analysis results demonstrate TMDI's multiple-mode controlling capability. The energy comparison plots of the uncontrolled and controlled structures prove the effectiveness of the optimum TMDI in providing enough damping and ensuring structural stability.
