Evaluation of damping reduction factors for estimating elastic response of structures with high damping.

The damping reduction factors are used in a few building codes in order to estimate the elastic response spectrum with high damping ratios from its 5 percent damped counterpart. At present, much research regarding this factor has been published. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the accuracy...
