A theoretical calculation method of seismic shear key pounding based on continuum model [PDF]

open access: yesMethodsX, 2023
The evolution of shear key design for bridges is accompanied by research on structural earthquake resistance. However, the vast majority of pounding forces, responses, and corresponding data for the study and design of shear keys have been based on ...

Structural Pounding Effect on the Seismic Performance of a Multistorey Reinforced Concrete Frame Structure

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2023
During intense ground motion excitations, the pounding between adjacent buildings may result in extensive structural damage. Despite the provision of regulations regarding the minimum separation gap required to prevent structural collisions, the majority

A New Method for Defining the Optimal Separation Gap Distance and the Acceptable Structural Pounding Risk on Multistory RC Structures

open access: yesApplied Sciences (Switzerland)
A proposal to control the structural pounding hazard imposed on multistory reinforced concrete (RC) structures is presented. The main goal is to guarantee the seismic performance of a structure with an acceptable (predefined) risk-targeted parameter ...

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]

open access: yesJES: 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.

Study on Pounding Response of Adjacent Inelastic SDOF Structures Based on Dimensional Analysis

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2021
The dimensional analysis method is applied to study the pounding response of two inelastic single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) structures under simplified earthquake excitation. The improved Kelvin pounding model is used to simulate the force and deformation

The Effect of strong motion duration on pounding of steel moment frame building [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Structural and Construction Engineering, 2019
Usually during moderate and strong earthquakes, if the space between the adjacent structures is not enough, structural pounding will occur which is due to the out-of-phase vibration of the structures regarding the differences in dynamic properties of the

The Effectiveness of Rubber Bumpers in Reducing the Effects of Earthquake-Induced Pounding between Base-Isolated Buildings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The methods for preventing earthquake-induced structural pounding between two adjacent buildings include ensuring a sufficient separation distance between them or decreasing their relative displacement during seismic excitation.
