Optimal design of supplemental viscous dampers for irregular shear frames in the presence of yielding.
A methodology for the optimal design of supplemental viscous dampers for regular as well as irregular yielding shear frames is presented. It addresses the problem of minimizing the added damping subject to a constraint on an energy based global damage index (GDI) for an ensemble of realistic ground...
