EXPERIMENTAL STUDY AND APPLICATION OF METALLIC YIELDING–FRICTION DAMPER

Journal of Earthquake and Tsunami, 2013
In this paper, a new idea for designing the metallic yielding–friction damper (MYFD) is presented based on the principle that the metallic plate can be used for yielding and can be the friction component of the passive energy dissipation device (PEDD).

Applications of Capacity Spectrum Method for Buildings With Metallic Yielding Dampers

Volume 8: Seismic Engineering, 2005
The 921 Chi-Chi Earthquake was one of the most destructive earthquakes in Taiwan in the twentieth century. The earthquake caused severe damage or collapse to the residential and public structures. It is a sensible choice to utilize the metallic yielding dampers for retrofitting damaged structures and to enhance earthquake-resistant capacity of new ...

Design of yielding metallic and friction dampers for optimal seismic performance

Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2003
AbstractThis paper deals with the optimal design of yielding metallic dampers and friction dampers together as they both have similar design characteristics and parameters. Ample tests and analytical studies have confirmed the effectiveness of these energy dissipation devices for seismic response control and protection of building structures.

Numerical and experimental study of comb-teeth metallic yielding dampers

International Journal of Steel Structures, 2016
In this paper, a new type of metallic yielding damper called comb-teeth damper, CTD, is introduced. CTD is made of steel plates and includes a number of teeth that dissipate energy through in-plane flexural yielding. An optimum geometry of teeth is suggested, which assures uniform distribution of stress along them and prevents strain localization ...

Shaking table test and numerical analysis of a combined energy dissipation system with metallic yield dampers and oil dampers

Structural Engineering and Mechanics, 2004
A shaking table test on a three-story one-bay steel frame model with metallic yield dampers and their parallel connection with oil dampers is carried out to study the dynamic characteristics and seismic performance of the energy dissipation system. It is found from the test that the combined energy dissipation system has favorable reducing vibration ...

Seismic Behavior of Steel Frames Equipped with Comb-Teeth Metallic Yielding Dampers

International Journal of Steel Structures, 2018
Comb-teeth damper (CTD), is a new type of metallic yielding damper, which is made of steel plates and includes a number of teeth that dissipate energy through in-plane flexural yielding. The behavior of individual samples of CTD have been previously studied numerically and experimentally and it has been shown that this damper has excellent energy ...

Direct design method based on seismic capacity redundancy for structures with metal yielding dampers

Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2017
SummaryIn this study, a direct static design method for structures with metal yielding dampers is proposed based on a new design target called the seismic capacity redundancy indicator (SCRI). The proposed method is applicable to the design of elastic‐plastic damped structures by considering the influence of damper on different structural performance ...

Simplified design of elastoplastic structures with metallic yielding dampers based on the concept of uniform damping ratio

Engineering Structures, 2018
Abstract This study proposes a novel design concept, referred to as the uniform damping ratio (UDR) concept, to improve the seismic energy dissipation efficiency of damped structures with metallic yielding dampers (MYDs) by maximizing the use of the capability of each damper.
