Overview

Innovative dimensionless approach establishes optimal damper designs for reinforced concrete frames, suggesting enhanced energy dissipation.

Key Points

  • Damping can be reduced by two times when leveraging the capacity of existing reinforced concrete structures, improving safety.
  • An innovative dimensionless framework can optimize the design of passive energy dissipation systems in existing buildings.
  • The arrangement of hysteretic dampers within or outside the structure significantly influences the efficiency of seismic retrofitting.
  • Infill walls affect the stiffness of retrofitted structures, necessitating adjustments in the passive energy dissipation systems.
