I’ve been looking for this kind of post. I was hoping for actual footage of the ball during the earthquake.

I learned about this in my vibrations class in college. Crucially, the ball is not a simple pendulum, it's mounted in place with a system of springs and dampers. The mass of the ball and the parameters of the springs and dampers are _tuned_ to match the resonant frequencies of the structure. This is done to prevent the building's sway from resonating with the oscillations of any applied forces, by transferring that oscillation into the ball.

I had seen that before but always wondered how it worked thank you!

Imagine it starts swinging in the same direction

Welcome to Control Theory. Its like one of the last chunk of things you learn in engineering school. Its starts at around Junior Year or Senior Year.

I remember when that building was being built and there was a lot of press over that damper for being the largest of its type in the world and mounted so high up. Very nice to see it continue to work so well.

Very cool to see in person.

Neat videos. As a California engineer you probably don't have a lot of experience with hurricanes or tornados although you mention wind forces very often in your videos. Tsunamis (from earthquakes, hurricanes, nuclear explosions, etc) are catastrophic forces that maybe builders might consider too. In the 1992 Hurricane Andrew in Miami much of the building damage came from developers purposely evading building codes and not including joints tying roofs and walls together as well as other requirements. These are good videos for me a non-engineer.

@Coastal_Cruzer

3 ай бұрын

California is one of the most seismically active states

Well, it doesn't "swing" to the other direction: It stays in the starting position until there's enough force to beat inertia and that point is sharply calculated with the needed mass of the steel pendulum to match the next swing (although the secondary inertia action would somewhat match up, it will have incredible wear and tear plus it won't work as good and could perhaps cause structural damage which obviously will lead to lethal outcomes) so yes, it does swing in the eyes of the observerer but to call it an absolute swing is rather absurd in the sense of physics behind the mechanism.

I visited this building last year. Amazing engineering

I tested this in the shower. I swayed left, and my steel balls seemed to deflect right relative to my body. I went right, and the seemed to go left. I can't say if it controlled my sway, but I am happy to keep trying, perhaps with more balls.

I get to go on one of those skyscraper and see and really took in at how massive the core is Honestly its amazing how it all works

As i recall a similar damper system was in an old theater in one of the Clairemont McKenna Colleges in California. Sometime in the 1970s they felt the need to destroy the old structure because it was not seismically safe. They went into the attic…and found a series of counter weight pendulums created out of huge stones. The structure was saved…and hopefully though it has been 50 years since i saw it…it is still standing.

The fact that I had a pendulum project for my physics class and I understood this makes me feel so proud that I paid attention to my physics class (I never pay attention to my classes lol)

I actually had to do a school project on earthquakes recently and I decided to use taipei 101 as an example of how people have to adapt to these earthquakes to were they live

Ohh wow ,this simple harmonic motion's application is interesting
