Seismic Response of Single-Degree-of-Freedom Systems with Structural Fuses

Passive energy dissipation (PED) devices have been implemented to enhance structural performance by reducing seismically induced structural damage. In this article, metallic dampers are defined to be structural fuses (SF) when they are designed such that all damage is concentrated on the PED devices...
