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 کاملINVESTIGATION OF THE OPTIMAL SEMI-ACTIVE CONTROL STRATEGIES OF ADJACENT BUILDINGS CONNECTED WITH MAGNETORHEOLOGICAL DAMPERS
This study investigates the efficacy of optimal semi-active dampers for achieving the best results in seismic response mitigation of adjacent buildings connected to each other by magnetorheological (MR) dampers under earthquakes. One of the challenges in the application of this study is to develop an effective optimal control strategy that can fully utilize the capabilities of the MR dampers. H...
متن کاملSeismic performance of r.c. framed buildings retrofitted using modern techniques: FRP versus base-isolation and added damping
The main purpose of this work is to compare different criteria for the seismic strengthening of r.c. framed buildings in order to find the optimal combinations of these retrofitting techniques. To this end, a numerical investigation is carried out with reference to the town hall of Spilinga (Italy), a r.c. framed structure with an L-shaped plan built at the beginning of the 1960s. Five structur...
متن کاملSeismic Performance of a Ductile Retrofitted Deck-truss Bridge
Seismic evaluations of many existing deck-truss bridges have revealed the vulnerability of their substructure and members of their superstructure. An innovative retrofit strategy developed by the authors includes replacement of the existing non-ductile end and lower-end bracing with ductile panels by incorporating energy dissipating devices to act as fuses, which can yield and dissipate energy ...
متن کاملExperimental investigation on seismic performance of nonlinear soil-structure system using MR dampers
This paper reports the results of an experimental study conducted to demonstrate the feasibility and capability of magneto-rheological (MR) dampers commanded by a decentralized control algorithm for seismic control of nonlinear civil structures considering soil-structure interaction (SSI). A two-story reinforced concrete (RC) frame resting in a laminar soil container is employed as the test spe...
