Experimental Investigation into Effect of Strip or Slit Geometric Pattern on Structural and Seismic Behavior of Steel Slit Yield Damper and Determining Optimal Pattern under Cyclic Loading

By reviewing the literature on steel slit yield dampers (SSD), this study investigated and compared the effect of new strip shapes and geometric patterns on the behavior of this type of dampers. This study investigated a reference slit-less sample (solid) along with nine samples with a single row of...
