Assessment of Different Retrofitting Methods on Structural Performance of RC Buildings against Progressive Collapse

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Progressive collapse refers to the spread of primary local damages within the structure. Following such damages due to removing one or more load-bearing columns, the failure spreads in a chain and causes structural failure. This study represents a report

Vibration isolation with smart fluid dampers: a benchmarking study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The non-linear behaviour of electrorheological (ER) and magnetorheological (MR) dampers makes it difficult to design effective control strategies, and as a consequence a wide range of control systems have been proposed in the literature.

Tuning of a Viscous Inerter Damper: How to Achieve Resonant Damping Without a Damper Resonance

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Inerter dampers are effectively employed to mitigate and dampen structural vibrations in slender or high-rise buildings. The simple viscous inerter damper, with a viscous dashpot placed in series with an inerter, is designed to create resonant vibration ...

Analitycal study of viscous damper parameters at a simple reinforced concrete frame

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
The energy dissipation process in the structure is caused by the earthquake load can be done by using bracing, base isolation and damper system. Damper is a device that is able to transform one form of energy into another form of energy. When a structure

Optimization of nonlinear viscous damper characteristics to reduce the response of concrete structures with linear and nonlinear behaviours [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2020
Nowadays, controlling vibration of a structure in earthquakes and reducing the structural responses are of great importance. Dampers are a type of systems controlling the absorption of the earthquake energy and dissipating it in order to reduce the ...

Damping effects of a stay cable attached with a viscous damper and a high damping rubber damper considering cable bending stiffness and damper support flexibility

open access: yesAdvances in Bridge Engineering
To mitigate cable oscillations in cable-stayed bridges, a common approach involves using a strategically positioned viscous damper near the cable’s anchorage and bridge deck. However, for longer cables, this method may be insufficient due to installation

Viscous rotary vane actuator/damper [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
A compact viscous rotary actuator/damper for use on the Mariner '71 and Viking Programs was developed. Several functions were combined into this single mechanism to control the deployment, latching, and damping of the solar panel arrays used on these ...

Development of the Viscous Plane Damper Applicable in Limited Space within Structures Subjected to Dynamic Loads

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Shipping impact and wave loads impose dynamic loads on jetties and platforms in the sea, which cause the vibration of structures. Recently, many advanced viscous damper devices have been developed for implementation in structures to diminish structural ...
