Mechanical Properties of Improved Multiple-Layers Viscoelastic Damper

Viscoelastic dampers (VEDs) have been implemented successfully to reduce structural vibrations due to earthquakes and wind events. Conventional VEDs consist of two viscoelastic (VE) layers chemically bounded at their entire contact surface to three steel plates. This configuration has proven to be e...
