Seismic Performance Evaluation of Building-Damper System under Near-Fault Earthquake
Shock and Vibration, 2020 The building-damper system designed by a seismic code is usually considered to be able to withstand the attack of strong earthquakes. However, near-fault earthquakes, especially those with the forward-directivity effect, might cause early and unexpected ...

Vibration Analysis of Friction Dampered Blade.
TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series C, 1993 Recently, in order to improve power plant thermal efficiency, the turbine blade, which is the most important element of the power plant, has been used under severe conditions of high loading. Therefore, for the purpose of increasing plant reliability, the blade with friction dampers has been used.

TreeSpider: In‐Canopy Exploration With Tether‐Based Aerial Modular Arms
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A tethered drone with perching arms and a 360° ring enables unprecedented maneuverability within dense forest canopies. By dynamically adjusting tether length and decoupling pitch from the frame, it navigates between branches, senses multiple trees, and interacts physically with foliage.

Numerical evaluation of a novel passive variable friction damper for vibration mitigation
, 2020 This study assesses the performance of a novel passive variable friction damper (PVFD) at mitigating wind- and seismic-induced vibrations. The PVFD consists of two friction plates upon which a cam profile modulates the normal force as a function of its ...

Mechanism and experimental validation of innovative self‐centering conical friction damper
Structural Control & Health Monitoring, 2020 Past earthquakes have shown that traditional structural design relies on the component ductility to dissipate the earthquake energy. This has led to significant damage for the structure.
