Solutions for the Design and Increasing of Efficiency of Viscous Dampers [PDF]
The Open Construction and Building Technology Journal, 2016 In last decades many strategies for seismic vulnerability mitigation of structures have been studied and experimented; in particular energy dissipation by external devices assumes a great importance for the relative simplicity and efficacy. Among all possible approaches the use of fluid viscous dampers are very interesting, because of their velocity ...
