Seismic Performance of a Frame–Core Tube Building with Nonlinear Viscous Damper-Equipped Coupling Beams
Nonlinear velocity dampers (NVDs) embedded in coupling beams may enhance the seismic performance of frame–core tube structures by dissipating energy and limiting structural damage. This study evaluates the seismic performance of a 20-story reinforced concrete (RC) frame–core tube building incorporating NVD-equipped cou...
