Optimal Design and Distribution of Viscous Dampers for Shear Building Structures Under Seismic Excitations

Viscous dampers (VDs) are effective and widely used passive devices for the protection of civil structures, provided that appropriate design is carried out. For this purpose, optimal design and optimum distribution of VDs method are presented for a shear building under the critical excitation by usi...
