Development of Steel Yielding Seismic Dampers Used to Improve Seismic Performance of Structures: A Comprehensive Review

Seismic excitation can cause significant energy to be released within structures. By using special devices, this consumed and dissipated without deforming structural members significantly. Due this, damage is minimized, casualties are prevented during earthquakes, structures extended in their useful life. Over the past five decades, it has been widely acknowledged that steel yielding dampers among best dissipation devices. It stated hysteretic behavior of could vary slightly depending on geometry. From a practical point view, they suitable for improvement seismic safety new existing The purpose paper present review related dampers, development, various types, applications, order help understand role these improving performance In terms shape, categorized as plate pipe curved slit dampers. most common use plate, such ADAS TADAS, braced frames, whereas U-shaped, J-shaped, S-shaped mostly seen frames with chevron bracing. Steel 60° angle steel-braced frame, other hand, provide frame strength. direction, until today, have found commonly used
