Modeling of a viscoelastic damper and its application in structural control.
Conventional seismic rehabilitation methods may not be suitable for some buildings owing to their high cost and time-consuming foundation work.In recent years, viscoelastic dampers (VEDs) have been widely used in many mid- and high-rise buildings.This study introduces a viscoelastic passive control system called rotary rubber braced damper (RRBD).T
