Abstract

In this paper, a trillnear-type elastoplastic damper using two kinds of V-shaped plates is proposed in order to obtain a hysteresis damper which gives damping even for a small displacement and has a fale-safe mechanism. The trial damper was made, and the resisting force characteristics and fatigue strength of the damper were measured. The seismic responses of an L-shaped pipe supported by the damper were discussed analytically and experimentally. These results are compared with the results obtained for bilinear-type elastoplastic dampers.
