Energy dissipating device
The invention relates to an energy dissipating device (10) which is capable of dissipating energy through its plastic axial deformation without undergoing buckling. It is characteristic for the invention, that the energy dissipating device (10) comprises at least three hysteretic elements (15), being interconnected in series in such a way, that at least one hysteretic element (15) will be subjected to compression while at least another hysteretic element (15) is subjected to tension when an external load is applied to the energy dissipating device (10).
