Variable Friction Device for Structural Control based on Duo-Servo Vehicle Brake: Modeling and Experimental Validation
Supplemental damping can be used as a cost-effective method to reduce structural vibrations. In particular, passive systems are now widely accepted and have numerous applications in the field. However, they are typically tuned to specific excitations and their performances are bandwidth-limited. A solution is to use semi-active devices, which have shown to be capable of substantially enhanced m...
متن کاملStructural Control Based on Semi-active Variable Friction Dampers
This paper discusses a methodology of semi-active structural control using a variable friction damper. The presented algorithm is quite simple and straightforward, in which only the slip level of the friction damper is controlled in response to the interstory response velocity of the damperinstalled story so as to maintain the target constant ductility factor. In conducting control there is adv...
متن کاملRe-centering variable friction device for seismic control of structures
This paper investigates the seismic response control of a nonlinear benchmark building with a new re-centering variable friction device (RVFD). The RVFD consists of three parts: (i) a friction generation unit, (ii) a piezoelectric actuator, and (iii) shape memory alloy wires. The friction unit and piezoelectric actuator compose the first subcomponent of the hybrid device that is a variable fric...

3 This paper investigates the performance of a novel semi-active damping device at mitigating non4 simultaneous multi-hazard loads. The device, termed modified friction device (MFD), has been previously 5 proposed by the authors. It consists of a variable friction system based on automotive drum brake technol6 ogy. The device has been demonstrated in a laboratory environment, and its dynamic be...
متن کاملRe-centering Variable Friction Device for Vibration Control of Structures subjected to Near-Field Earthquakes
This paper proposes a re-centering variable friction device (RVFD) for control of civil structures subjected to near-field earthquakes. The proposed hybrid device has two subcomponents. The first subcomponent of this hybrid device consists of shape memory alloy (SMA) wires that exhibit a unique hysteretic behavior and full recovery following post-transformation deformations. The second subcompo...
