This paper aims to investigate the effectiveness of actively controlled inerter-based structural control devices. As an example, a tuned inertial mass electromagnetic transducer (TIMET) consisting of an inerter, a tuning spring, and a motor is employed, and the performance when the motor is controlled actively is evaluated. Moreover, the energy generated and consumed by the motor during seismic events is examined, and the feasibility of the self-powered control scheme is discussed as well. Numerical studies carried out on the benchmark three-story building show that actively -controlled TIMETs work better than the passive system and that the self-powered system is highly feasible.
