Elasto-Plastic Short Exoskeleton to Improve the Dynamic and Seismic Performance of Frame Structures

The coupling with external mechanical systems such as oscillating masses working as tuned mass dampers, dynamic mass absorbers, elasto-plastic dampers, and rigid walls is an effective method to reduce the displacements and drifts of structures under external loads. An alternative method is provided...
