Abstract
Authors have developed the slip damper as the energy dissipation device for structural seismic control. This device consists in multiple sliding plates combination so as to obtain large frictional force with small pressure between each surface. Moreover, sintered bronze alloy distributed carbon particle and stainless steel are used for frictional coupling to achieve the stable frictional motion. In this report, mechanical properties of this device were verified through quasi-static tests and dynamic tests. Furthermore, wear and corrosion properties about this device were investigated for confirming its reliability in experimental approaches.
