Ultrasonic Pulse-Echo Signal Analysis for Damage Evaluation of Metallic Slit-Plate Hysteretic Dampers [PDF]

open access: yesMetals, 2017
This paper proposes a pulse-echo Ultrasonic Testing (UT) methodology to quantify the damage of hysteretic dampers subjected to cyclic loadings. Energy dissipation is known as an innovative strategy for the protection of buildings against earthquakes.

Assessment of the Magnetic Hysteretic Behaviour of MR Dampers through Sensorless Measurements

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2018
Magnetorheological (MR) dampers are well-known devices based on smart fluids. The dampers exhibit nonlinear hysteretic behaviour which affects their performance in control systems. Hence, an effective control scheme must include a hysteresis compensator.

Evaluation of a Simplified Method to Estimate the Peak Inter-Story Drift Ratio of Steel Frames with Hysteretic Dampers

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2017
In this paper, a simplified method is proposed to estimate the peak inter-story drift ratios of steel frames with hysteretic dampers. The simplified method involved the following: (1) the inelastic spectral displacement is estimated using a single-degree-

Tuned inerter dampers with linear hysteretic damping [PDF]

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2020
SummaryThis paper explores the influence of linear hysteretic damping on the performance of passive tuned‐inerter devices. An inerter is a device that produces a force proportional to the relative acceleration across its two terminals; devices incorporating inerters have received widespread attention in the earthquake engineering community, because ...

Hysteretic model for bending-type frictional steel truss coupling beams

open access: yesResilient Cities and Structures, 2023
As a novel coupling beam for coupled shear wall structures, the bending-type frictional steel truss coupling beam (BFTCB) concentrates the deformation and energy dissipation in friction dampers at the bottom chord, allowing the main body to remain ...

Influence of a hysteretic damper on the flutter instability [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluids and Structures, 2017
The influence of a hysteretic damper on the airfoil flutter instability is investigated. In particular, its effect on the post-critical limit cycle oscillations (LCOs) is emphasized. For that purpose, an aeroelastic model including large amplitude motions and dynamic stall phenomenon, is considered for a rigid flat plate having two degrees of freedom ...
