New steel damper with displacement dependent recentering for seismic protection of structures

2015-09-23
In this paper, a summary of analytical and experimental studies into the behavior of a new hysteretic damper, designed for seismic protection of structures is presented. The Multi-directional Torsional Hysteretic Damper (MTHD) is a patented invention in which a symmetrical arrangement of identical cylindrical steel elementsis so configured as to yield in torsion while the structure experiences planar movements due to earthquake shakings. The device has gone through many stages of design refinement, multiple prototype verification tests and development of design guide-lines and computer codes to facilitate its implementation in practice

Systematic development of a new hysteretic damper based on torsional yielding: part I-design and development
Milani, Ali Salem; Dicleli, Murat (2016-05-01)
Analytical and experimental studies into the behavior of a new hysteretic damper, designed for seismic protection of structures is presented in two papers. Although the subject matter of the papers is a specific system, they are also intended as an illustration of practical application of diverse engineering tools in systematic development of an anti-seismic product. The Multi-directional Torsional Hysteretic Damper (MTHD) is a recently patented invention in which a symmetrical arrangement of identical cyli...
