Abstract

This study reviews and discusses several recent design approaches for passively controlled structures. First, an optimized arrangement method for the energy dissipation members (EDMs) of various infrastructures is introduced. Next, seismic isolation and passive control techniques for freeform space structures are discussed. Finally, research on various spine-frame concepts with EDMs is reviewed. All these approaches are being introduced to actual structural design, and recent examples are reported here.
