This paper discusses the full-size experiment of beam-column-gusset plate assemblies. High strength and high ductility are required so that the passively-controlled struc [...]

The properties like the rigidity of a frame are very important to predict the dynamic response of the building with any dampers since the effect of dampers in a frame str [...]

This paper describes finite element analysis of subassemblies composed of beams, columns, and gusset plates in passively controlled buildings. Numerical analysis with con [...]

This paper deals with the deformation capacity of shear panel dampers (SPD), which is one type of sacrificing members to be used in damage control design of structures. T [...]
