Performance Evaluation of Negative Stiffness Devices for Seismic Response Control of Bridge Structures via Experimental Shake Table Tests
Abstract
A newly developed passive device that provides negative stiffness has been implemented within a quarter-scale highway bridge model and subjected to seismic loading via shake table testing. Details of the experimental results and their comparison with numerical simulations under a wide range of ground motions are presented. In addition, performance indices were developed to systematically evaluate the relative performance of different isolation system configurations that employ combinations of positive and negative stiffness as well as various levels of damping. Further, the influence of boundary conditions (rigid versus flexible bridge piers) on the effectiveness of employing negative stiffness devices has been evaluated.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
