Innovative magnetorheological dampers (MR dampers) for shock and vibration damping, based on magnetorheological fluids (MRFs), are described. Important fields of their application are loading processes, impact dampers in security systems as well as vibration dampers for machines and cars. Various models for describing the MR dampers are discussed. The characteristic feature of the MR dampers is...

Fluid viscous dampers (FVDs) have shown their efficiency as energy-dissipating systems, reducing the effects induced on structures by dynamic loading conditions like earthquakes and winds. In this paper, evolution of technology is reviewed, with a focus current trends in development from passive to semi-active adaptive systems an emphasis advances adaptability control efficacy. The paper examin...

This article presents a Lyapunov precise integral-based analysis method for seismic structures with added viscous fluid dampers. study uses the full stress algorithm as optimization method, considering mean square of interstory drifts objective, position damper object, and random vibration calculation to optimize frame A integral solution is derived equation based on general expression differen...

This study focuses on the modeling of manufactured damper when used in steel buildings. The main aim dampers is to protect buildings from damaging effects that may result due earthquakes by introducing an extra damping addition traditional damping.Only Pure Manufactured Dampers, has been considered this study. Viscous generally preferred structural engineering as it leads a linear model then du...

This paper investigates the seismic performance of two adjacent buildings connected by viscous dampers. Three types damper placement are discussed, including installing dampers within a single building, connecting at same floor level, and inter-story level. Analytical models established to consider various dynamic properties buildings, theoretical solutions obtained, transmissibility curves, ad...
