    to find the optimum parameters of the TMD. For a given mass ratio, µ, one can assume different values of the frequency ratio, f, and for each frequency ratio assuming a range of damping factor ζ2 of the TMD and estimate the optimum parameters that minimize a certain desired output. Fig. 8 is an example of the numerical optimization conducted to estimate the optimal frequency ratio and damping factor of the TMD for two different mass ratios under wind loads modeled as white-noise. The optimization is
