An Efficient Stochastic Linearisation Procedure for the Seismic Optimal Design of Passive Control Devices

The seismic response of structures is often enhanced by introducing passive control devices that can operate through the dissipation of the input energy or by modifying the dynamic characteristics of the main structure. The inherent non-linearities in the constitutive laws of some of them lead to co...
