Investigating the effect of far and near field to fault on seismic behavior of dual frames with convergent bracing equipped with viscose damper

Abstract

In this study, non-linear behavior of steel frames with dual lateral loader system with convergent crossing and chevron bracing equipped with linear and non-linear liquid viscose dampers in 8 and 12 story models as 2D under the record of near and far field to fault earthquakes are studied, evaluated and compared. For doing time history non-linear analyses, non-linear analysis software of Perform-3D has been used. This research absolutely confirms that viscose dampers reduces structure's responses under the effect of near and far field to fault records in a way that using non-linear viscose dampers in dual steel frames, the rate of created reduction is under the effect of near field records and more.

Parametric Study of Damping Characteristics of Magneto-Rheological Damper: Mathematical and Experimental Approach

“…As MATLAB is a high end multiparadigm mathematical computing environment so a mathematical model should be simulated in it to be used for future researches on control strategies [15], [16] involving the same. The control strategies performed on an experimental model can then be verified by observing the same in MATLAB/SIMULINK effectively [17], [18].…”
