Study on Optimal Placement and Reasonable Number of Viscoelastic Dampers by Improved Weight Coefficient Method

الملخص EN

A new optimal method is presented by combining the weight coefficient with the theory of force analogy method.

Firstly, a new mathematical model of location index is proposed, which deals with the determination of a reasonable number of dampers according to values of the location index.

Secondly, the optimal locations of dampers are given.

It can be specific from stories to spans.

Numerical examples are illustrated to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed mathematical model and optimal method.

At last, several significant conclusions are given based on numerical results.
