Aiming at the problem of excessive vertical vibration caused by seismic primary waves in jacket structures located in seismic zones in China, a new type of shear plate metal damper with upper and lower elliptical openings (SPA) is proposed in this paper....

In order to improve the seismic and energy dissipation capacity of the whole structure, a friction-oval section mild steel rod composite damper (FOSRCD) was proposed, and its working principle was clarified. The finite element analysis of FOSRCD was carr...

Concentrically braced frame (CBF) systems are susceptible to buckling (which causes a decrease in energy absorption), although this system has considerable lateral stiffness and strength. To over this shortcoming, researchers have suggested the use of I-...

Base isolation of liquid storage tanks has proven to be an efficient seismic protection measure, leading to a drastic reduction of a superstructure?s distress. However, many such tanks are located near seismic tectonic faults, which generate strong pulse...

Wind and/or earthquake-imposed loadings on two dynamically similar adjacent buildings cause vigorous shaking that can be mitigated using energy dissipating devices. Here, the vibration response control in such adjacent structures interconnected with semi...
