Aftershock fragility assessment of steel moment frames with self-centering dampers
Engineering Structures, 2018Abstract This study explores the aftershock collapse performance of steel buildings designed with superelastic viscous dampers (SVDs) under seismic sequences. The SVD strategically combines shape memory alloy (SMA) cables and a viscoelastic compound to provide good self-centering and damping capabilities.

Mechanism and experimental validation of self-centering nonlinear friction damper
2020Current earthquake design philosophy in North America focuses on providing minimum “life safety” requirement, where main structural components are designed to dissipate the earthquake energy through inelastic yielding during strong earthquake shaking. This could result in significant financial losses and downtime.

Hysteretic and seismic performance of dual self-centering variable friction damper braces
Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2021Abstract A novel dual self-centering variable friction damper (DSC-VFD) brace was introduced to achieve greater post-yield stiffness and a better energy dissipation capability. To evaluate its hysteretic response with a novel flag shape, a new uniaxial material with different loading and unloading stiffnesses was developed based on the OpenSees ...

Seismic response of self‐centering precast concrete frames with hysteretic dampers
The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings, 2019SummaryWith the rapid development of cities and the invasion of major natural disasters such as earthquakes, the resilience city as a new design concept has been paid more and more attention. As an important branch of self‐centering seismic resisting system, self‐centering concrete frame system has been studied by many scholars.
