    Abstract: Damping arrangements for counteracting oscillations of a structure are disclosed. The damping arrangement comprises a first tuned mass damper having a first mass configured to perform a first reciprocating movement along a first displacement axis in response to oscillations of the structure, and a second tuned mass damper having a second mass configured to perform a second reciprocating movement along a second displacement axis in response to oscillations of the structure. The second mass is arranged vertically separated from the first mass, and the first and second displacement axes are arranged at an angle with respect to each other. Methods for damping oscillations in a structure are also disclosed.
