Abstract
In this paper, the elements which affect structure’s response reductions are proposed to evaluate the effect of a variable friction damper. The factors which influence the response reductions and the installation charges are analyzed in subsection numerical examples. Finally, this paper also draws conclusions about the advantages and disadvantages for variable friction dissipators (VFD) in comparison with friction damper (FD).
