Behaviour Investigation of SMA-Equipped Bar Hysteretic Dampers Using Machine Learning Techniques

open access: yesApplied Sciences (Switzerland), 2021
Most isolators have numerous displacements due to their low stiffness and damping properties. Accordingly, the supplementary damping systems have vital roles in damping enhancement and lower the isolation system displacement. Nevertheless, in many cases,

Entropy Analysis for Damage Quantification of Hysteretic Dampers Used as Seismic Protection of Buildings

open access: yesApplied Sciences (Switzerland), 2017
Relative wavelet energy entropy (RWEE) is proposed to detect and quantify damage to hysteretic dampers used for the passive seismic control of building structures. Hysteretic dampers have the role of dissipating most of the energy input of an earthquake.

A Loss Separation-Based Dynamic Jiles–Atherton–Bingham Model for Magnetorheological Dampers [PDF]

open access: yesSensors
Magnetorheological (MR) dampers exhibit significant hysteretic nonlinearities, particularly under dynamic operating conditions, where accurately modeling the complex coupling between magnetic flux density and excitation current remains challenging.

Effect of Bidirectional Hysteretic Dampers on the Seismic Performance of Skewed Multi-Span Highway Bridges

open access: yesBuildings
Bridges are one of the most critical and costly structures on road networks. Thus, their integrity and operation must be preserved to prevent safety concerns and connectivity losses after seismic events. Recent large-magnitude earthquakes have revealed a

Efficiency of hysteretic damper in oscillating systems [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena, 2020
This paper is dedicated to comparative analysis of nonlinear damping in the oscillating systems. More specifically, we present the particular results for linear and nonlinear viscous dampers, fractional damper, as well as for the hysteretic damper in linear and nonlinear (Duffing-like) oscillating systems.
