Optimization of Seismic Response of Steel Structure Using Negative Stiffness Damper
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 9
Abstract
Earthquakes of greater magnitude can cause stark destruction. Seismic protection of structures is one important tool to minimize damages and total collapse of structures. Researchers have made many attempts to achieve this goal with various techniques and one such strategy of seismic response control developed is introducing true negative stiffness in the structure. True negative stiffness is introduced with the help of negative stiffness damper (NSD). The NSD generates force in the direction of the displacement and hence it is called Negative Stiffness. The present study focuses on modelling NSD device in a commercial software tool (ETABS 2016). Further the device is implemented on 2D Steel frame models and seismic parameters like base shear, Storey displacement and Top storey acceleration are studied.
