Cyclic behavior and failure mechanism of self‐centering energy dissipation braces with pre‐pressed combination disc springs

Summary A new type of bracing system composed of friction energy dissipation devices for energy dissipation, pre‐pressed combination disc springs for self‐centering and tube members as guiding elements is developed and experimentally studied in this paper. The mechanics of this system are explained,...
