PULIDO-DELGADO, J.L.; RODRIGUEZ-CUEVAS, C.  y  MARTIN DURAN-GARCIA, H.. Seismic Response of Adjacent Structures Connected by Linear Viscous Dampers. Ing. invest. y tecnol. [online]. 2012, vol.13, n.2, pp.227-235. ISSN 2594-0732.

This study shows the seismic response of two adjacent structures connected by linear viscous dampers (5% damped) SDOF systems linked to one another by a passive viscous damper was comprehensively evaluated trough time history analysis. The seismic excitation was modelled as a non stationary random process, and the response of the structures was obtained by Monte Carlo simulations. It was found that existing approximate expressions to evaluate the seismic response are qualitatively correct in the sense that they rightly indicate in which cases the coupling control approach is indeed convenient.

Palabras llave : adjacent structures; seismic response; structures; linear viscous dampers.
