Development of a Semi-Active Bypass Viscous Damper for bridge structures subjected to dynamic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Variable traffic vibration loads on overcrossing and bridges are the cause of damages in essential load-bearing components could consequently lead to damage or failure of the bridge. Nowadays, the fluid viscous dampers are the most conventional energy

Dynamic analyses of adjacent buildings connected by fluid viscous dampers [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2009
Building structures are often built close to each other because of lack of available land in metropolitan cities. In this study, the effectiveness of fluid viscous dampers is investigated in terms of the reduction of displacement, acceleration and shear force responses of adjacent buildings. The specific objectives of this investigation are carried out
