Comparative Study of The Seismic Performance Between Simply Supported PSC Box Girder Bridge Equipped with Shear Panel Damper and Lead Rubber Bearing

International Journal of Technology
Several bridges in Indonesia are designed using elastomeric bearing (ERB) with a low capability of reducing seismic responses. This results in a significant demand for larger pier cross-sectional dimensions and a greater number of reinforcements ...

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Collision‐Resilient Winged Drones Enabled by Tensegrity Structures

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Based on structures of birds such as the woodpeck, this article presents the collision‐resilient aerial robot, SWIFT. SWIFT leverages tensegrity structures in the fuselage and wings which allow it to undergo large deformations in a crash, without sustaining damage. Experiments show that SWIFT can reduce impact forces by 70% over conventional structures.

Seismic Behaviour Of Base Isolation System Using Lead Rubber Bearing

Jurnal Teknologi, 2013
Nowadays the main cause of damage of reinforced concrete frames in the countries which are located on the seismic line area is earthquake even though they are designed due to the enactment of seismic codes. To provide a solution to these problems, Lead Rubber Bearing (LRB) system has been utilized in the construction of the buildings.

Seismic Vibration Control of Building with Lead Rubber Bearing Isolator

Kalpa Publications in Civil Engineering, 2018
During the life span of structure there may be an effect of vibration. Due to vibration there may be major or minor damage in building. Base isolation is best method to reduce the seismic response of the structure. This paper gives idea about base isolation system which can be used in multi-story building to reduce seismic response of the structure ...
