Probability analysis of seismic pounding of adjacent buildings

Earthquake Engineering & Structural Dynamics, 2001
AbstractThe need to investigate the level of seismic pounding risk of buildings is apparent in future building code calibrations. In order to provide further insight into the pounding risk of adjacent buildings, this study develops a numerical simulation approach to estimate the seismic pounding risk of adjacent buildings separated by a minimum code ...

The study on mitigating seismic pounding of the highpiers bridge

2011 International Conference on Multimedia Technology, 2011
In this paper, the anti-pounding dampers were installed in longitudinal and transverse directions of a high-pier bridge's pounding locations (expansion joints), under multi-excitation considering the traveling wave effect, doing comparative analysis of the seismic response of the bridge with high-pier between with and without the anti-collision damper ...

Structural flexibility impact on pounding severity and seismic performance of adjacent isolated buildings

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering
Limited research on the pounding of adjacent isolated buildings (floor-to-floor pounding) and conflicting results about the effect of ductility on pounding severity highlight the need for further investigation.

Assessment of seismic pounding hazard for Taipei City

Engineering Structures, 2000
Taipei City, with its high seismicity, soft soil condition, and many tall buildings without proper seismic separation, is vulnerable to seismic pounding destruction similar to that occurred in Mexico City during the 1985 earthquake. A survey of the seismic separation is performed to reveal the current status and identify the buildings susceptible to ...

Study of the Effect of Seismic Pounding on Tall Buildings

2019
The building structures are vulnerable to severe damage and collapse due to strong ground motion. Among the various structural damages, pounding damage is the most serious one. This is the most serious seismic hazard usually occur in highly populated areas during earthquake.

Seismic Analysis of Irregular Building Subjected to Pounding

Journal of Geotechnical Studies
Earthquakes have always been a source of great devastation for humanity. With the fast growth of metropolitan cities, land limitation has become a critical issue, resulting in the construction of high-rise buildings very close to each other. Such buildings are prone to seismic pounding.

Seismic response of a historic church considering pounding phenomena

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2017
The vulnerability of historic masonry structures and monuments under seismic loading including churches has been confirmed during major recent earthquake events. The current research focuses on pounding effects on masonry structures, a vulnerability factor that even though it is considered to be significant for the response of adjacent reinforced ...

Influence of pounding and skew angle on seismic response of bridges

Engineering Structures, 2017
Abstract The seismic vulnerability of skewed bridges has been known since the past few decades. Previous research has found that skewed bridges are more prone to girder unseating than a straight bridge due to the in-plane rotations of the bridge girder which were found to be aggravated by pounding between adjacent spans and abutments.

Dynamics of Seismic Pounding at Expansion Joints of Concrete Bridges

Journal of Engineering Mechanics, 1998
Motivated by a need to understand the effects of earthquake-induced pounding at thermal expansion joints of concrete bridges, the first part of this paper deals with collinear impact between concrete rods of the same cross section but different lengths.
