Numerical simulation on seismic pounding damage in a simply-supported steel bridge [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Steel bridges are generally considered to perform well during seismic activity. Nevertheless, they still suffered much unexpected seismic damage in the Kumamoto earthquake, especially seismic pounding damage.

Numerical Analysis of Seismic Pounding between Adjacent Buildings Accounting for SSI
Applied Sciences (Switzerland), 2023 The structural pounding caused by an earthquake may damage structures and lead to their collapse. This study is focused on the pounding between two adjacent asymmetric structures with different dynamic properties resting on the surface of an elastic half-

Performance of base-isolated moment resisting steel frames subjected to pounding effects under near-field earthquake ground motions [PDF]
Journal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2021 Despite conservative requirements of existing building code regarding clear seismic gap distance of base-isolated (BI) structures to surrounding moat walls, seismic performance of these structures is still ambiguous under severe earthquake ground motions

Influence of Lower Lateral Bracing on the Seismic Pounding Damage to Slab-On-Girder Steel Bridges
Applied Sciences, 2023 During strong seismic events, seismic-induced pounding has been observed to cause damage to bridges. Previous studies on seismic-induced bridge pounding responses have generally focused on reinforced concrete bridges.

Assessment of seismic vulnerability of RC frames at the end-of-row of buildings with floor-to-floor alignment using multi-strips analysis MSA [PDF]
JES: Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2022 During earthquakes’ excitation, adjacent buildings start vibrating out of phase (in different directions) leading to collisions with each other causing severe damage in a phenomenon known as structural pounding.
