Optimal seismic design of moment resisting steel frames with hysteretic passive devices.

The effectiveness of hysteretic passive devices to protect and mitigate the response of a structure under seismic loading is well established by both analytical and experimental research. Nevertheless, a systematic and well-established methodology for the topological distribution and size of these d...
