Viscoelastic dampers, as supplementary energy dissipation devices, have been used in building structures under seismic excitation or wind loads. Different analy
A general method is developed for optimal application of dampers and actuators by installing them at optimal location on seismic-resistant structures. The study
Viscoelastic dampers are now among some of the preferred energy dissipation devices used for passive seismic response control. To evaluate the performance of st
The analysis of dynamic responses of cable-stayed bridges subjected to wind and earthquake loads generallyconsiders only the motions of the bridge deck and pylo
In this paper, the dynamic stress concentration and scattering of SH-waves by bi-naterial structures that possess an interface elliptic cavity are investigated.
