Seismic Response Study of Asymmetric Systems with Linear and Nonlinear Fluid Viscous Dampers
This investigation is concerned with application of nonlinear fluid viscous dampers for asymmetric-plan systems. For this purpose, the behavior of nonlinear fluid viscous dampers is summarized first followed by the effects of damper nonlinearity on seismic response of asymmetric systems. It is shown that the peak force in nonlinear damper tends to be smaller compared to linear damper. However, ...
متن کاملApplication of a Direct Procedure for the Seismic Retrofit of a R/C School Building Equipped with Viscous Dampers
Several design methods aimed at sizing the viscous dampers to be inserted in building structures have been proposed in the last decades. Among others, the authors proposed a five-step procedure that guides the practical design from the choice of a target reduction in the seismic response of the structural system (with respect to the response of a structure without any additional damping devices...
متن کاملDistributed NSGA-II for seismic retrofitting optimization with multi-core PC cluster
1. Abstract The distributed Genetic Algorithm (GA) for PC cluster with multi-core-CPUs is proposed as a time reducing method for determining the schemes of retrofitting existing buildings with Buckling restrained Brace (BRB). Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (NSGA-II), one of the derivative evolutionary algorithm in heuristic method, was applied since the optimization problem have a mu...
متن کاملAn Experimental Study of MR Dampers for Seismic Protection
In this paper, the efficacy of magnetorheological (MR) dampers for seismic response reduction is examined. To investigate the performance of the MR damper, a series of experiments was conducted in which the MR damper is used in conjunction with a recently developed clipped-optimal control strategy to control a three story test structure subjected to a one-dimensional ground excitation. The abil...
متن کاملModeling and Control of Magnetorheological Dampers for Seismic Response Reduction
Control of civil engineering structures for earthquake hazard mitigation represents a relatively new area of research that is growing rapidly. Control systems for these structures have unique requirements and constraints. For example, during a severe seismic event, the external power to a structure may be severed, rendering control schemes relying on large external power supplies ineffective. M...
