Comparison Of Operation Of Metal Dampers In Steel Structures Based On Endurance Time Method, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Esmaeil Pourestekanchi, Homayun (Supervisor)
Abstract
Based on special properties of metal dampers such as high energy dissipation, stable hysteric cycles and simple application, low cost, insensitivity to changes of temperature and ability to be substituted after occurring of earthquakes, they are being used for structures control. ADAS and SSD are two kinds of metal dampers which are connected to top of the chevron braces and under the middle of beams. When shear forces are applied, these dampers yield and enter the plastic zone. In Endurance Time (ET) method gradually intensifying acceleration functions are created in a manner that the linear and nonlinear response spectra of them, while being proportional to average of real earthquakes...
