Abstract
Yielding dampers should be designed in such a way that they provide the possibility of absorbing and wasting energy before the main elements of the structure yield. The use of dual-stage yielding dampers has recently attracted the attention of researchers and engineers. Considering the two-level performance of these systems in mild earthquakes as well as destructive excitations, it can be expected that the use of these dampers in severe earthquakes will prevent drastic form changes in the main structural elements. In this research, an attempt has been made to determine the effect of using dual-stage systems on the ultimate strength and energy dissipation capacity of the structure by using the results of testing three full-scale experimental samples of circular yielding dampers and dual-stage circular yielding dampers with bolted connections. In another experimental specimen, the effect of using friction in dual-stage dampers was investigated. The experimental specimens were subjected to quasi-static cyclic loading and their results demonstrated that the use of dual-stage circular yielding dampers can increase the ultimate strength in compression and tension by 84% and 40%, respectively. Also, the effect of friction in dual-stage dampers was 7%. The energy dissipation capacity has also increased by 28% in the dual-stage damper specimen. Also, the bolt connection of the damper has been able to prevent brittle and premature failure of the connection.
