The use of metallic dampers is an effective way to reduce seismic responses and dissipate
excessive vibration energy for civil structures. Conventional metallic dampers employed …

Abstract Since the 2017 Puebla-Morelos Earthquake, interest in limiting damage to structural
components has exponentially increased in Mexico. Consequently, the use of energy …

The objective of this study is to develop a moment-rotation model (M-θ) to evaluate the
hysteresis behavior of self-centering beam-column connection with replaceable angle steel …

This paper investigates the performance of the new retrofitting system, consisting of self-
centreing damper resilient slip friction joint (RSFJ)-toggle bracing system. The RSFJ-toggle …

This study introduces a novel Replaceable Fuses Metallic Damper (RFMD) with a double-
stage yield mechanism, aiming to enhance the energy dissipation capacity of structures …

A mild steel-friction self-centering damper with a hybrid energy-dissipation mechanism (MS-
SCFD) was proposed, which consisted of a mild steel, frictional, dual-energy-dissipation …

A moment-rotation (M-θ) model is developed to analysis the hysteresis characteristic of the
novel self-centering (SC) column base with web-friction-device (WFD) and stiffener-steel …

Aiming to enhance seismic resilience of steel frames, this paper proposes a novel
replaceable self-centering energy dissipative brace (RSCEDB), in which the combined disc …

Although exterior cladding finishes play an important role in the aesthetic and protective
aspects of a building, their seismic performance remains an issue in earthquake-prone …

This paper proposes a novel dual-stage friction self-centering damper (DFSCD) consisting
of two components: a flat surface friction device (FSFD) and a wedge surface friction device …
