Effects of Hysteresis and Negative Stiffness on Seismic Response Reduction: A Case Study Based on the 1999 Athens, Greece Earthquake
The aim of this paper is to investigate the effects of hysteresis and negative stiffness on seismic response reduction. For this reason, the novel Hysteretic Nonlinear Energy Sink (HNES) is used as a passive vibration control device for seismic response mitigation. So far, HNES performance has been...
