The behavior of the Tuned Liquid Damper (TLD) which has been widely used for mitigating structural vibration is generally modeled by linear wave theory and its vibration control performance is evaluated using Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) analogy. However, some previous studies showed that the properties of the TLD such as natural frequency and damping ratio were dependent on the excitation amplitude. In this study, the dynamic nonlinear characteristics of the TLD are investigated by shaking table test with varying excitation amplitude. In case of harmonic excitation experimentation, the damping ratio, natural frequency, and effective mass are obtained through envelope curves overlap of time-history curve from measured base shear and analogy base shear using simulation a freedom of simple degree modeling. In the white noise experimentation, the parameters obtained through curve-fitting of the transfer function from the table acceleration to the base shear.
