Active-passive control strategy for adjacent buildings [PDF]
In this paper, a control strategy to mitigate the vibrational response of adjacent buildings under seismic excitation is presented. The proposed strategy combines interbuilding passive actuators with active actuators placed in the building stories. The main ideas are presented by means of a simplified two-building model; however, a semi-decentralized ...

It has been found that in the event of a strong earthquake, and due to insufficient distance between two adjacent structures, the lateral movement at the top of structures may cause collisions between them.

Swarm-based Parallel Control of Adjacent Irregular Buildings Considering Soil–structure Interaction
Seismic behavior of tall buildings depends upon the dynamic characteristics of the structure, as well as the base soil properties. To consider these factors, the equations of motion for a multi-story 3D building are developed to include irregularity and ...

Shared Tuned Mass Dampers for Mitigation of Seismic Pounding
This study explores the effectiveness of shared tuned mass damper (STMD) in reducing seismic pounding of adjacent buildings. The dynamics of STMDs is explored through numerical simulations of buildings idealized as single and multiple degree of freedom ...

Design Charts for Estimating Response of R.C. Frame Building Adjacent to Deep Excavation Supported by Soil-Nailing Method [PDF]
Excavation-induced displacements may cause damage to buildings and urban facilities. The displacement of walls is inevitable in soil nailing method to mobilize the tensile force in steel elements. FEM-based numerical analyses in MIDAS GTS NX were used to

Investigations on the Dynamic Response of Adjacent Buildings Connected by Viscous Dampers
This paper investigates the seismic performance of two adjacent buildings connected by viscous dampers. Three types of damper placement are discussed, including installing dampers within a single building, connecting two buildings at the same floor level,
