The Effect of Magnitude M_w and Distance R_rup on the Fragility Assessment of a Multistory RC Frame Due to Earthquake-Induced Structural Pounding

Buildings, 2023
The effect of an intensity measure’s (IM’s) sufficiency property on the probabilistic assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) structures due to floor-to-floor structural pounding conditions is examined.

Determination of Peak Impact Force for Buildings Exposed to Structural Pounding during Earthquakes

Geosciences, 2019
Structural pounding between adjacent, insufficiently separated buildings, or bridge segments, has been repeatedly observed during seismic excitations. Such earthquake-induced collisions may cause severe structural damage or even lead to the collapse of ...

Probabilistic IM-Based Assessment of Critical Engineering Demand Parameters to Control the Seismic Structural Pounding Consequences in Multistory RC Buildings

Applied Sciences
This research aims to assess and quantify the significance of incorporating the seismic performance of global and local engineering demand parameters (EDPs) within probabilistic frameworks when structural pounding of adjacent buildings occurs.

Verification of Formulas for Periods of Adjacent Buildings Used to Assess Minimum Separation Gap Preventing Structural Pounding during Earthquakes

Advances in Civil Engineering, 2019
Insufficient separation distance between adjacent buildings may lead to serious damages during earthquakes due to structural pounding. The best way to prevent collisions is to provide sufficiently large separation distance between structures.

A Structural Pounding Formulation Using Systematic Modal Truncation

Shock and Vibration, 2018
The evaluation of the response function of the structural pounding problem is generally time-consuming if high-order systems are applied. The well-known modal truncation strategy is outstandingly efficient for a single linear ground-accelerated structure.

Influence of structural parameters on the vertical pounding between girder and pier in unequal-span girder bridges under near-fault vertical ground motions. [PDF]

Sci Rep
This study investigates the vertical pounding response of unequal-span girder bridges, focusing on the effects of rubber bearing stiffness, span ratio, and pier height.

Effects of shear wave velocity and soil structure interaction on the structural pounding during earthquakes

Revista Facultad De Ingenieria-universidad De Antioquia, 2023
It has been found that in the event of a strong earthquake, and due to insufficient distance between two adjacent structures, the lateral movement at the top of structures may cause collisions between them.

Fragility analysis of structural pounding between adjacent structures arranged in series with various alignment configurations under near-field earthquakes

Bulletin of Earthquake Engineering, 2022
A major cause of local to total damages is related to structural pounding in a large number of past earthquakes. In general, these collisions take place as a result of differences in the dynamic characteristics of the colliding structures.

Earthquake Response Spectra Analysis of Bridges considering Pounding at Bilateral Beam Ends Based on an Improved Precise Pounding Algorithm

Shock and Vibration, 2021
Asynchronous vibration was generated between the main bridge and approach spans or abutments due to differences in stiffness and mass during an earthquake, thus further leading to pounding at the bilateral beam ends.

Influence of Seismic Pounding on RC Buildings with and without Base Isolation System Subject to Near-Fault Ground Motions [PDF]

Journal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering, 2013
Building pounding occurs between two adjacent buildings with small gap or without sufficient separation distance. It leads to damage buildings during earthquake due to impact.
