Energy-Based Optimization of Seismic Isolation Parameters in RC Buildings Under Earthquake Action Using GWO

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Modeling seismic isolators, one of the most effective installations in the design of earthquake-resistant buildings, is a very important challenge. In this study, we propose a new energy-based approach for the optimization of seismic isolation parameters.

STUDI EFEKTIFITAS PENGGUNAAN TUNED MASS DAMPER PADA STRUKTUR GEDUNG DALAM MEREDUKSI RESPONS DINAMIK AKIBAT BEBAN SEISMIK

open access: yesCivil Engineering Dimension, 2003
One of the approaches to reduce excessive oscillation on buildings due to dynamic forces is by installing a mechanical device called tuned mass damper (TMD). This paper presents a study on the effectiveness of TMDs installed on the top story of 1, 5, 10,

Influence of near-fault effects and of incident angle of earthquake waves on the seismic inelastic demands of a typical Jack-Up platform [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, the potential influence of near-fault effects and of the incident angle of earthquake waves to the seismic response of a typical jack-up offshore platform is assessed by means of incremental dynamic analysis involving a three dimensional ...

Seismic performance analysis of reinforced multi-story frames with external fractal dimension-buckling restrained braces

open access: yesJournal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
Leveraging fractal theory and the construction principle of diamond-shaped perforations for easy cutting, a regularly structured yet disorderly fractal dimension-buckling restrained brace (FD-BRB) core unit with diamond-shaped perforations was designed ...
