Research on Restoring Force Model of Self-centering Unidirectional Friction Damper by Liu Yunshuai, Li Bingrui, Lu Wenhui, Liu Huaxing, Han Jianping

“…Secondly, Based on an existing simplified model, by introducing the stiffness of both the damper cylinder and rod, the stiffness calculation methods for different operational phases were revised, and an improved restoring force model was developed. Thirdly, to verify the reliability of the restoring force model, two sets of experimental hysteresis data from self-centering unidirectional friction dampers with different distances between nuts and piston were used for comparison with the improved and simplified models. …”
