    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    These seismic vibration control systems are connected using braces in series and installed with pins to the building structure, enabling installation with little impact on the building structure. This book details testing, analysis and case studies of dampers at braced positions and also exposed to small amplitude vibration.

    Long description:

    The high damping force of oil damper vibration control systems in buildings


    offers relative safety during earthquakes and at a low environmental


    cost. The oil damper is connected using braces in series and is installed with


    pins to the building structure, which minimizes the impact on the building


    structure and allows installation and removal with ease.


    This is the first book detailing experimental work and cases of the use of


    oil dampers in buildings. It shows their effectiveness by detailing the testing


    and analysis of buildings with them placed at braced positions, exposed to


    small amplitude vibration, and without them.


    ? The only comprehensive presentation of oil damper vibration control


    ? Covers analysis and design, with case studies and details of testing


    and experimental results


    The book is organized systematically to suit students and junior professionals


    in structural design as well as more specialist engineers. An additional


    Python code sample is available online for learning the behaviors of oil


    dampers (Jupyter Notebook environment required).
