Seismic Hazard Mitigation using Passive Damper Systems
March 21, 2011
Filed under Project Spotlight
NEES@Lehigh is current conducting tests using elastomeric dampers. The vision for the project is a validated multi-level, probabilistic, performance-based seismic design procedure for buildings with supplemental passive damping systems. The performance-based design procedure will be used to produce several design cases for each prototype building, by varying the strength of the steel frames and the […]
