Numerical and experimental evaluation of a developed nonlinear curved spring element under compression force
This paper presents an evaluation of a curved spring element that may be utilized in a developed variable stiffness bracing (VSB) system to confer the variable stiffness characteristic of the system.VSB system is established to protect the structure against dynamic loads induced by earthquake, wind...
