Comparison of Dynamic Responses of Parallel-Placed Adjacent High-Rise Buildings under Wind and Earthquake Excitations

Shock and Vibration, 2021
Two parallel-placed adjacent high-rise buildings are often linked to each other through passive control devices for vibration mitigation purposes. The mitigation efficiency of these control devices mainly depends on the characteristics of relative ...

Hybrid Coupled Building Control for similar adjacent buildings

KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering, 2017
The concept of connecting two adjacent buildings has been effectively used to mitigate the structural responses of such buildings due to strong ground motions. Lots of analytical and experimental studies have shown the efficiency of this conventional strategy for dissimilar coupled buildings.

Behavior of Slopes under Multiple Adjacent Footings and Buildings [PDF]

International Journal of Geomechanics, 2018
This article examines the response of soil slopes under adjacent embedded strip foundations, subjected to increasing vertical load due to the gravity load of buildings. The study also considers slopes under closely spaced adjacent buildings. In addition, the article addresses the effects of horizontal earthquake loading using the simplified ...

Investigation of Earthquake Significant Duration on the Seismic Performance of Adjacent Steel Structures in Near-Source [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2021
According to the recent Earthquake records, the earthquake duration is longer in some areas, resulting into more structural damage. One of the important factors in reducing earthquake damages is the separation gap between two adjacent structures.

Seismic Pounding between Three Adjacent RC Buildings Considering Soil-Structure Interaction [PDF]

JES: Journal of Engineering Sciences
In highly populated cities, the close spacing of buildings often results in interaction effects, including structure–soil–structure interaction (SSSI) and seismic pounding (SP), which occur because of the limited gaps left between adjacent structures. In

Hydro-Mechanical Numerical Analysis of a Double-Wall Deep Excavation in a Multi-Aquifer Strata Considering Soil–Structure Interaction

Buildings
In order to exploit the deep underground space, the construction of ultra-deep excavation in Shanghai is growing rapidly. In multi-aquifer strata, deep excavations typically require dewatering of confined aquifers to ensure engineering safety.

Seismic Response Analysis of Fully Base-Isolated Adjacent Buildings with Segregated Foundations

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2018
In populous cities, construction of multistorey buildings close to each other due to space limitation and increased land cost is a dire need. Such construction methods arise several problems during earthquake excitation.

Effective Gap Size Index for Determination of Optimum Separation Distance Preventing Pounding between Buildings during Earthquakes

Applied Sciences, 2021
Seismic excitations may lead to collisions between adjacent civil engineering structures, causing major damage. In this paper, an effective equation for calculating the gap size index is proposed so as to provide the optimum separation distance ...
