Experimental Characterization, Modeling, and Numerical Evaluation of a Novel Friction Damper for the Seismic Upgrade of Existing Buildings

The paper presents the experimental characterization, the formulation of a numerical model, and the evaluation, by means of non-linear analyses, of a new friction damper conceived for the seismic upgrade of existing building frames. The damper dissipates seismic energy through the friction force tri...
