Reduction of Structural Vibrations by Passive and Semiactively Controlled Friction Dampers

(a) Normal force stiffness relation. (b) 1D Jenkins friction model. (c) Jenkins model hysteresis loop (thick) in comparison to the Coulomb friction hysteresis (thin). Note, that for increasing tangential stiffness, the hysteresis approximates the Coulomb model hysteresis.
