This paper proposes an innovative dual-function damper based on the elastoplastic torsional deformation of steel tubes. The damper adopts a V-shaped polyline design, enabling the components to achieve elastoplastic torsional deformation under external loads, thereby providing both load-bearing and energy-dissipation capabilities. Theoretical analyses were conducted to derive fundamental mechanical parameters, including the initial stiffness, yield load, and yield displacement of the damper. A dual-torsion tube three-fold V-shaped brace, referred to as the double-torsional-tube V-shaped brace (DTTB), was designed and utilized as a diagonal brace for frame structures. Under quasi-static low-cycle loading conditions, experimental and simulation results revealed that the damper exhibited full hysteresis loops and strong energy dissipation capacity. The equivalent viscous damping coefficient reached 0.38 at the design displacement of 50 mm, meeting the performance level of similar buckling-restrained brace (BRB). The stiffness degradation and energy dissipation characteristics of the specimens were found to be similar to those of BRBs, validating the feasibility of the proposed damper as a dual-function energy-dissipative brace. The simulation results were highly consistent with experimental observations, verifying the accuracy of the theoretical model. By optimizing the initial angle of the support bar to 25°, the axial tension-compression imbalance coefficient was reduced to 1.2, meeting the requirements of relevant standards and further verifying the engineering feasibility of the design. Finally, the issue of excessive axial tension-compression imbalance caused by geometric nonlinearity was analyzed in detail, providing theoretical insights for enhancing future design schemes.
试验过程采用增幅循环加载,如图10所示. 参照《建筑消能阻尼器》(JG/T 209—2012)[21]中建议的金属屈服阻尼器试验方法,并考虑到初代试样的不确定性,在试件达到屈服位移后,对增幅进行了相应的加密,以防止构件由于加载位移增幅过大发生失效,无法获得完整的力学性能曲线. 因此,整个加载过程共22个循环,每个循环加载时间为200 s,采样频率为10 Hz. 其中,第一个循环的最大位移为 5 mm,第二个循环的最大位移为10 mm. 从第三个循环开始,每个循环的最大位移比前一个循环增加 2 mm,直至构件达到设计位移50 mm. 试验中构件的荷载与位移均以受拉方向为正.
