viscous damper with pushover analyses

Post by ameri »

hi
i want to model SAC structures with viscous damper with pushover analysis and comparison results with IDA
How can i do modeling viscous damper with pushover analysis?

While you can absolutely implement Pushover analysis on frames with dampers in SStruct, the below paper should give you a good idea on the procedure of implementing it.

However, bear in mind that pushover analysis may not successfully take into account the contributory effect of added dampers.

Dissipators.’ Civil Engineering Research Bulletin No. 24, Department of Civil Engin eering, University of Queensland.
