Traditional structural seismic resistance is achieved by enhancing the seismic performance (strength, stiffness, ductility) of the structure itself to resist natural disasters such as earthquakes, wind, snow, tsunamis, etc. Due to the uncertainty of the intensity and characteristics of natural disasters, and the lack of self-regulation ability in structures designed using traditional anti vibration methods, earthquakes often cause significant economic losses and casualties.
The development and application of viscous energy dissipation dampers is equivalent to installing "safety airbags" on buildings or bridges. When an earthquake strikes, the damper maximizes the absorption and consumption of the impact energy of the earthquake on the building structure, greatly alleviating the impact and damage caused by the earthquake on the building structure.
