Systems Driven out of Equilibrium with Energy Input at Interfaces or Boundaries
… In the second part of the thesis, we study magnetic friction that results when two Potts systems move with respect to each other. In this research, we first study a model that consists of two interacting Potts blocks, where one block moves on top of the other. As a result, the system is …

Development of Electromagnetic Friction Dampers for Improving Seismic Performance of Civil Structures
… to extreme natural events such as earthquakes. Friction is one of the most reliable mechanisms of energy dissipation that has been utilized extensively in friction dampers to improve seismic performance of civil structures. Friction dampers are well-known for having a highly nonlinear hysteretic …
