Abstract: A mechanical model of a particle damper (PD) was established which has a friction effect between the damper particle and the damper cavity. PD parameters can have a significant effect on the particle damper’s ability to ...

Abstract: This study developed a special energy dissipation X-bracing for cold-formed steel (CFS) shear walls to improve the ductility of the corrugated steel sheathing. In previous research, CFS shear walls with corrugated sheathing ...

Abstract: Particle dampers have good performance of vibration control and noise reduction, and they have been widely studied and applied in the field of high-frequency vibration control, such as aviation and mechanical engineering. ...
