Life-cycle seismic resilience assessment of isolated bridges equipped with different isolation systems

Structure and Infrastructure Engineering, 2023
Damage to bridges during a seismic event can cause significant disruption to post-event activities. In addition to natural hazards, the deterioration of bridges over their lifespan also significantly impacts seismic performance.

Rubber-sand infilled soilbags as seismic isolation cushions: experimental validation

Geosynthetics International
This study proposes the use of soil bags filled with a rubber sand mixture (SFRSM) to address the issue of weak stability associated with rubber-sand layers for seismic isolation.

Numerical and statistical investigation of the performance of closed-cell aluminium foam as a seismic isolation layer for tunnel linings

European Journal of Environmental and Civil Engineering, 2021
Traffic congestion and environmental factors in urban areas have increased the use of underground structures such as tunnels. The protection of these tunnels is therefore crucial and requires anti-seismic measures, especially in areas of earthquake prone

New Structural Seismic Isolation System

2018
New structural seismic isolation system named Spherical Foundation Structural Seismic Isolation (SFSSI) system which has been discovered and first prototyped on a 104 m height (26 storey) building example is presented. Creation of SFSSI system aimed to build structural seismic isolation system, of which period must be more than the predominant period ...

Seismic Collapse Probability and Life Cycle Cost Assessment of Isolated Structures Subjected to Pounding With Smart Hybrid Isolation System Using a Modified Fuzzy Based Controller

Structures, 2022
The possibility of pounding on isolated structures with surrounding moat walls is one of the concerns in the design of isolation systems, especially in pulse-type near-field earthquakes.

Seismic isolation apparatus

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1999
A seismic isolation apparatus which has a composite multilayered member comprising a plurality of hard plates having rigidity and a plurality of soft plates having viscoelastic property which are arranged to form alternating layers between an upper flange and a lower flange; and satisfies the condition that the proper vibration to the horizontal ...

Implications of strong earthquake ground motion duration on the response and testing of seismic isolation systems

Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2020
This paper presents an investigation of the effects of the duration of earthquake ground motion on the peak displacement and total dissipated cumulative energy in seismic isolation systems designed by the procedures of ASCE/SEI 7‐16.
