Dynamic Seismic Response of Nonlinear Displacement Dependent Devices Versus Testing Required by Codes: Experimental Case Studies

Passive energy dissipation systems are one of the most resilient solutions to mitigate the seismic risk of structures. In case of strong motions, they can confine the eventual damages into easily replaceable anti-seismic devices. The performance characteristics of nonlinear displacement dependent de...
