Energy dissipation prediction of particle dampers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper presents initial work on developing models for predicting particle dampers (PDs) behaviour using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). In the DEM approach, individual particles are typically represented as elements with mass and rotational ...

Optimisation of Longitudinal Seismic Energy Dissipation System for Straddle-type Monorail-Cum-Road Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridge

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2019
To investigate the optimal longitudinal seismic energy dissipation system of straddle-type monorail-cum-road long-span cable-stayed bridges, the Niutianyang Bridge was selected as the engineering background, and the explicit time-domain dimension-reduced

Enhancing Seismic Resilience: Evaluating Buildings with Passive Energy Dissipation Strategies

open access: yesEng
Structures are recommended to be designed and constructed with the integration of structural health monitoring techniques to ensure that they can dissipate a large amount of energy without considerable damage when subjected to earthquakes. Hysteretic (H),

Explicit solution for vibrating bar with viscous boundaries and internal damper

open access: yes, 2011
We investigate longitudinal vibrations of a bar subjected to viscous boundary conditions at each end, and an internal damper at an arbitrary point along the bar's length.

Application of a direct procedure for the seismic retrofit of a R/C school building equipped with viscous dampers

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2015
Several design methods aimed at sizing the viscous dampers to be inserted in building structures have been proposed in the last decades. Among others, the authors proposed a five-step procedure which guides the practical design from the choice of a ...

Seismic performance analysis of Kuala Lumpur air traffic control tower by friction damper [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In structural earthquake engineering, different kinds of energy absorption devices were invented during last 30 years (Guan et al, 2004). And more than one-decade research has shown that, on account of the virtue of no power requirement, rapid response ...
