Geotechnical Seismic Isolation System Based on Rubber-Sand Mixtures for Rural Residence Buildings: Shaking Table Test [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2022 The anti-seismic problem of rural residential buildings is the weak link of seismic retrofitting in China. Recently, geotechnical seismic isolation (GSI) technology based on rubber–sand mixtures (GSI–RSM) using rubber–sand mixtures (RSM) between the ...

Selection of seismic isolation system parameters for the near-optimal design of structures [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2022 The benefits of seismic isolation are many. Structures that are isolated from the ground seismically perform better than those that are not. They experience reduced floor accelerations and drifts and are less likely to experience damage to structural ...
