    Abstract

    A versatile and transportable dual-axis tall building motion simulator was designed and built as part of an international collaborative study on occupant comfort, cognitive performance and task performance in wind-excited tall buildings. This paper describes the features and capability of the motion simulator and the calibrations of the motion simulator based on sinusoidal displacement signals.
