Suitability of Seismic Isolation for Buildings Founded on Soft Soil. Case Study of a RC Building in Shanghai

open access: yesBuildings, 2020
Base (seismic) isolation is a promising technology for seismic protection of buildings and other constructions. Nowadays, it is accepted that such a technique is efficient and reliable; however, it has two major limitations: soft foundation soil, and ...

Sequence variation in the haemagglutinin-neuraminidase gene of human parainfluenza virus type 3 isolates in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The sequence variation in a 934 base-pair region of the gene encoding the haemagglutinin-neuraminidase of five human parainfluenza virus type 3 (HPIV3) isolates was determined together with that of a prototype UK strain. All of the clinical isolates were

Enhancing Friction Pendulum Isolation Systems Using Passive and Semi-Active Dampers

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Friction pendulum systems (FPSs) are a common solution for isolating civil engineering structures under ground movements. The result is a base-isolated structure in which the base exhibits low shear stiffness in such a way that the input energy of the ...
