Proposal for vertical distribution of seismic design load and equivalent isolation ratio for seismically isolated buildings with multiple types of dampers: Vertical distribution of seismic design load for seismically isolated buildings corresponding to diversity of seismic isolation devices, part 2

open access: yesJapan Architectural Review, 2023
As previously reported, we have proposed a vertical distribution of seismic design load for seismically isolated buildings (SIBs) corresponding to diversity of seismic isolation devices such as hysteretic dampers and velocity‐dependent dampers.

Base Isolation Compared to Capacity Design for Long Corner Periods and Pulse-Type Seismic Records

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Southern Romania is a geographic region with alluvial deposits. This soil type leads to rather long corner periods and provides as a particularity of the response spectrum an enlarged plateau. These conditions produce large displacement demands. Moreover,
