Development and application of metallic dampers in bridge engineering: A review
Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online)Bridges may suffer from large-amplitude vibrations due to strong winds, earthquakes, human-induced loads, and vehicle-induced dynamic loads. Metallic dampers employed the energy dissipation from the hysteretic behavior of metal materials are among the ...

Optimum Strength Distribution for Structures with Metallic Dampers Subjected to Seismic Loading
Metals, 2020 A key aspect of the seismic design of structures is the distribution of the lateral strength, because it governs the distribution of the cumulative plastic strain energy (i.e., the damage) among the stories.

Estimation of Cyclic Demand in Metallic Yielding Dampers Installed on Frame Structures
Applied Sciences, 2020 The efficacy of hysteretic dampers can be formulated as the number or equivalent inelastic cycles, or the ratio of normalised dissipated energy to displacement ductility. This parameter is used in the design of framed structures with supplemental dampers
