Development of adjustable variable stiffness restrainer for bridge subjected to seismic excitation (2023)
Journal Article
Hamzah, M. K., & Hejazi, F. (2023). Development of adjustable variable stiffness restrainer for bridge subjected to seismic excitation. PLoS ONE, 18(6), Article e0286977. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0286977

This paper presents a numerical and experimental assessment of a developed adjustable variable stiffness restrainer (AVSR) utilized for short span bridges. This restrainer has the ability to demonstrate multi stiffness capacity in different stages of...

Developed steady-state response for a new hybrid damper mounted on structures (2023)
Journal Article
Ziaee, M., & Hejazi, F. (2023). Developed steady-state response for a new hybrid damper mounted on structures. PLoS ONE, 18(8), Article e0290248. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0290248

Coulomb friction is considered as a mechanical approach to diminish the structural responses during the excitations. However, in case of severe oscillations supplementary mechanisms are employed besides the friction to mitigate the destructive effect...
