Comparing the efficiency of different structural skeleton for base isolated domes [PDF]
The structural concept of the dome dates back to the Pantheon in Rome. It is used as the cover of many churches and mosques all around the world. Light solutions, with a well-visible dome-shaped truss skeleton, are often preferred in modern architecture.

Investigation of Combined Steel-Concrete Structures with Inter-Story Seismic Isolator in Near-Fault Field [PDF]
Seismic isolation systems represent one of the most effective solutions to reduce near-fault damages; the systems can be used at either foundation or story levels.

Sliding Isolation Systems: Historical Review, Modeling Techniques, and the Contemporary Trends
Base isolation techniques have emerged as the most effective seismic damage mitigation strategies. Several types of aseismic devices for base isolation have been invented, studied, and used. Out of several isolation systems, sliding isolation systems are

Seismic Isolation Systems Against Earthquake Disaster
Most of our country is located in the earthquake zone where active fault lines exist. Statistical analysis show thatdamaging earthquake occurs every 8 months in our country.The major devastations due to the 1999 Kocaeli andDüzce earthquakes have caused ...
