A Semi‐active piezoelectric friction damper
Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2014 SummaryThis research investigates the development of a semi‐active piezoelectric friction damper for controlling the seismic response of large‐scale structures. The proposed device is made of Duplex steel and leads to high friction capacity, which can be developed either in passive or semi‐active modes.

Semi-active linear vacuum packed particles damper
Journal of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2016 In this paper, the authors focus on the proposition of an innovative semi-active linear damper prototype working on the basis of granularmaterials. Vacuum Packed Particles (VPP) belong to the class of materials whose mechanical (rheological, dissipative) propertiesmay be quickly changed by applying a partial vacuum inside the system. The concept of an

Enhancing Friction Pendulum Isolation Systems Using Passive and Semi-Active Dampers
Applied Sciences, 2020 Friction pendulum systems (FPSs) are a common solution for isolating civil engineering structures under ground movements. The result is a base-isolated structure in which the base exhibits low shear stiffness in such a way that the input energy of the ...

Experimental Evaluation of Modified Groundhook Car Suspension with Fast Magnetorheological Damper
Actuators, 2022 The car suspension setting is always a trade-off between comfort and handling. The semi-active damper system seems to be an option for reducing the compromise between the two demands.
