Describing Functions For Effective Stiffness and Effective Damping of Hystersis Structures
For a hysteresis structure with energy dissipation devices, the force-displacement relation is nonlinear such that it is very difficult to evaluate the actual damping and stiffness coefficients, even if the forcedisplacement characteristic is simply perfect elasto-plastic. With the describing funct...
