Implementable Bio-Inspired Passive Negative Spring Actuator for Full-Scale Structural Control under Seismic Excitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A bio-inspired passive negative spring actuator inspired by an energy-dissipating mechanism called sacrificial bonds and hidden length is designed, fabricated and implemented in a test case of a three-story structural model ...

Bioinspired Tuned Mass Damper for Mitigation of Wind-Induced Building Excitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a novel bioinspired actuator that mimics the sacrificial bond and hidden length mechanism, a highly efficient energy dissipation mechanism found in bio-organisms such as abalone shell and bone. The ...
