Test data, actual seismic input - El Centro (1940)

Laboratory Test

•Ground acceleration •Top floor acceleration

只要一個圖就夠了,這其中以 El Centro 對研究地震的人來說最著名.如果日本客戶,用 Kobe 也行,要依學術研究習慣註明年份 (1995) .

Design Principles

Competition Comparison

LRB ASBDCoupled vertical and horizontal components, prone to generating bending moment, increasing design complexity.

Separate vertical and horizontal components, simplifying design work, easy to handle.

Large Displacement Handling Capacity

Competition Comparison

LRB ASBDEffective damping ratio tops off at 25% when displacement reaching 0.2 m.

Displacement 0.3-0.8 m can be designed upon request. Test data shows 0.4 m example.

Damper Endurance

Competition Comparison

LRB ASBDClosed space inhibits heat dissipation. Damper stability deteriorates after 4 cycles.

Open design aids heat dissipation. Damper behavior unchanged after 100 cycles.
