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.

Why advanced buildings don't work? [PDF]
, 2012 The intent of policy is to achieve robust comfortable low energy buildings. However there are obvious policy disconnects and, where there is evidence, it appears that in general advanced buildings do not achieve their intended performance. There are many

Viscoelastic damper connected to adjacent structures involving seismic isolation
Journal of Civil Engineering and Management, 2005 The seismic response of multiâ€storied baseâ€isolated structure to various types of isolation systems connected using viscoelastic dampers to the adjacent dissimilar baseâ€isolated or fixedâ€base structure is investigated.

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.
