Improvement of the Analytical Model of an Energy Dissipator and Validation with Experimental Tests of a Prototype

Improvement of the Analytical Model of an Energy Dissipator and Validation with Experimental Tests of a Prototype

An improved numerical formulation for a self-centering frictional damper is presented. This was experimentally validated through quasi-static tests carried out on a steel-made prototype of the damper. Its design is ad hoc for implementation in the seismic protection of industrial storage racks. The...
