The Lightweight Design of a Seismic Low-Yield-Strength Steel Shear Panel Damper

The lightweight design and miniaturization of metallic dampers have broad application prospects in seismic engineering. In this study, the superplastic property and the maximum energy dissipation capacity per unit mass of low-yield-strength steel (LYS) are investigated via comparison with those of s...
