Seismic Behavior of Damper Connection and its Surrounding Members in Passive-control Structures

Passive-control is used for most major Japanese high-rise buildings after the 1995 Kobe earthquake. Nevertheless, the majority of these studies have tested isolated dampers or simple subassemblies which neglect the influence of the framing components and the damper connections on the system performance. In order to evaluate the elasto-plastic behavior of beam-column subassemblies with brace-type and wall-type damper connections, hybrid-control experiments and numerical studies are carried out.
