Optimized earthquake response of multi-storey buildings with seismic isolation at various elevations
(2012)
SUMMARY The response of multi-storey structures can be controlled under earthquake actions by installing seismic isolators at various storey levels. By vertically distributing isolation devices at various elevations, the ...
Optimized retrofit of multi-storey buildings using seismic isolation at various elevations: assessment for several earthquake excitations
(2015)
This work is concerned with the seismic retrofit of multi-storey buildings by installing isolation devices at various levels along their height. The design of an effective retrofit solution of this type requires the selection ...
Response of seismically isolated buildings considering poundings
(2007)
Numerical simulations and parametric studies have been used to investigate the influence of potential poundings of seismically isolated buildings with adjacent structures on the effectiveness of seismic isolation. Poundings ...
