Energy Dissipation Analysis on Real Application by Using Viscoelastic Dampers


Abstract eng:
Design and study on petrol hotel in Xi'an city in China using viscoelastic energy dissipation braces in seismic regions of intensity 8 are carried out. First, dynamic responses of the structure under normal earthquake design level are calculated by the time history method. Considering the structure does not satisfied aseismic requirement, viscoelastic energy dissipation braces are used for reinforcement. Then, the position optimization and design of viscoelastic dampers and connected braces are provided. The results proved that viscoelastic dampers can reduce the earthquake responses of the structure effectively through the comparison with and without viscoelastic dampers, and viscoelastic dampers are high-performance energy dissipation devices.
