Current seismic codes propose designing all new buildings in isolation from their
neighbours. As a result, all modified seismic risks associated with interbuilding dynamic …

It is conventional to assume that the role of the soil-structure interaction (SSI) is beneficial to
the buildings under seismic loading. However, lessons learned from recent earthquakes …

Nowadays, using smart connections can improve the performance of buildings with some
recentering features that are from the superelastic behavior of Shape Memory Alloys …

Seismic vulnerability and loss analyses of buildings are usually estimated under the fixed-
based condition, omitting the soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects. However, according to …

Seismic pounding has taken place in several earthquake events since adjacent structures
that lack adequate separation distance usually suffer from repetitive, severe collisions …

In this study, the nonlinear soil-structure interaction (SSI) is considered to analyse the mid-
rise structure's seismic performance with proportional lateral stiffness of columns in the …

The present study deals with evaluation of the effects of different ground motions, backfill-
structure interaction (BSI) and soil-structure interaction (SSI) on dynamic response of a box …

Most civil structures exhibit nonlinear behavior during moderate to severe earthquakes.
Consequently, inelastic analysis is needed for seismic design. Several dynamic and static …

Tall buildings can affect the seismic safety of shorter buildings in their vicinities. Majority of
the studies have investigated such influences by analyzing the structure-soil-structure …

As the population grows and land prices rise, high-rise buildings are becoming more and
more common and popular in urban cities. The traditional high-rise building design method …
