Abstract: Recently developed inerter-based dampers have been installed at the base layer to reduce base displacement and simultaneously improve the superstructure's performance. However, in the existing research on optimizing damper parameters, the nonlinear property of base isolation is simplified and stochastic linearization technique is introduced to approximate such nonlinearity, which would inevitably introduce errors. In this paper, an improved method is proposed for stochastic optimization of electromagnetic inertial mass dampers (EIMD) in nonlinear hybrid isolation systems subject to seismic excitations. First, a stochastic seismic excitation is represented by one elementary random variable adopting the dimension-reduction spectral representation method. Then, statistical moments of nonlinear base-isolated structural responses are estimated using two-point estimation method (2PEM). Finally, the EIMD optimal parameters are obtained via the modified directional bat algorithm (MDBA) recently proposed by the authors through minimizing base layer response moments. This proposed improved method could fully consider the base isolation nonlinearity compared with the previous stochastic linearization technique. Moreover, the proposed stochastic optimization of the EIMD only requires two dynamic analyses to achieve its efficiency. A seven-story base-isolated frame building equipped with an EIMD is investigated in the numerical simulation, and results indicate that EIMD optimized by this proposed method obviously outperforms the results by the stochastic linearization technique and the conventional viscous damper (VD) in the base layer displacement reduction.
