Shake-table testing of a stone masonry building aggregate: overview of blind prediction study
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2023 City centres of Europe are often composed of unreinforced masonry structural aggregates, whose seismic response is challenging to predict. To advance the state of the art on the seismic response of these aggregates, the Adjacent Interacting Masonry ...

Optimization of the Use Time of a Shake Table with Specimen Preparation outside the Table Surface
Buildings, 2022 The shake table test is one of the preferred techniques used to understand the dynamic response of a structure. However, due to the limited number of facilities available to perform such tests and their expensiveness, researchers often must rely on ...

Shake table testing of a half-scale stone masonry building aggregate
Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2023 Masonry aggregates have developed throughout city centres of Europe due to a centuries-long densification process that generally lacked consistent planning or engineering.

Experimental Seismic Assessment of Nonstructural Elements: Testing Protocols and Novel Perspectives
Buildings, 2022 Nonstructural elements (NEs) are generally defined as elements typically housed within buildings/facilities that are not part of the structural system. Nonstructural elements are often classified as architectural elements, mechanical/electrical/hydraulic

Shaking table tests on shallow foundations [PDF]
WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, Vol 93, 2007 In this paper the results of shaking table tests on shallow foundations, using dry Hostun RF sand, are presented. These tests were performed in a six-degree of freedom seismic simulator formed by 3 m long square table, able to move 10 t mass with up to 1-g accelerations.

Shake table testing of a rocking podium: Results of a blind prediction contest
Earthquake engineering & structural dynamics (Print), 2020 Rocking motion is sensitive to the boundary and initial conditions of a rocking structure, making experiments nonrepeatable. Thus, the claims that numerical rocking motion models are not only inaccurate but that all rocking structures behave ...
