Seismic Control of Frame Structures Equipped with SMA-Based Self-Centering Friction Energy Dissipation Dampers
To improve the seismic performance and post-earthquake recoverability of low- and mid-rise steel frames, this study investigates the seismic performance and layout strategy of a self-centering friction damper (SCFD) through experimental and numerical studies. The SCFD combines the superelastic restoring capability of s...
