Which risk increases when a tuned mass damper's restoring force function degrades?

💡 Explanation

Resonance can amplify structural oscillations because a faulty restoring force alters the damper's resonant frequency into that of applied external environmental vibrations of the structure; therefore resonance is the answer rather than other specific damper failures affecting wear.
