Dynamics of a sliding‐rocking block considering impact with an adjacent wall
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2020A freestanding rigid block subjected to base excitation can exhibit complicated motion described by five response modes: rest, pure rocking, pure sliding, combined sliding‐rocking, and free flight. Previous studies on the dynamics of a rocking block have

Finite element analysis of the seismic shake‐table response of a rocking podium structure
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2020Rocking podium structures consist of rocking columns supporting a platform to achieve kinematic seismic isolation of the superstructure above. This article presents detailed finite element (FE) analysis modeling and results of the benchmark rocking ...

Seismic fragilities of single‐column highway bridges with rocking column‐footing
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2019Rocking isolation has been increasingly studied as a promising design concept to limit the earthquake damage of civil structures. Despite the difficulties and uncertainties of predicting the rocking response under individual earthquake excitations (due ...

Abstract SOMETIMES, when musing about seemingly insoluble problems, the mind takes to wandering along rather whimsical ways. So it was the other day when the tangible I was wandering down Front Street in Lahaina, Hawaii, thinking about the changing global ecosystem.

Currently living and working in Toronto, cover artist Diane Vetere studied studio art and was primarily a painter at first. When she and her husband purchased Apple's first Macintosh computer, everything changed. Vetere explains the creation this issue's cover image using Adobe Photoshop and several standard filters as well as Corel's KPT hypertiling ...

Seismic response assessment of rocking systems using single degree‐of‐freedom oscillators
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2019A new modeling for the seismic response assessment of free‐standing, rigid or flexible, pure rocking systems is presented. The proposed modeling is based on equivalent single degree‐of‐freedom (SDOF) oscillators that can be implemented with common ...
