Seismic Performance Evaluation of Various Passive Damping Systems in High and Medium-Rise Buildings with Hybrid Structural System

Abstract

The main aim of this manuscript is to bridge existing knowledge gaps by undertaking comprehensive investigation of several high and medium-rise structures in Iran with different damping devices embedded within cut outs of shear walls. To further extend understanding of damping devices embedded within cut outs of shear walls, these structures are treated under a variety of different earthquake excitations and the results are compared in order to capture their advantages in creating efficient damping systems. The research will address the needs of local industries. It aims to carry out a comprehensive investigation on seismic mitigation of high and medium-rise structures with different damping devices embedded within cut outs of shear walls at different locations across the height of each structure. Nonlinear finite element modeling approach has been used in the current study.
