The in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OOP) seismic collapse of masonry infills (MIs) may
induce devastating economic and social consequences for public buildings such as …

Photonic crystals or man-made periodic materials own band gap characteristics, which can
block the elastic wave propagate through the structure and can be used to mitigate the …

Metamaterials are making a breakthrough in seismic wave manipulation with their ability to
yield wave filtration properties that cannot be realized inherently through conventional …

A limited gap between closely spaced structural parts may induce internal pounding in
seismically isolated structures, because of notable displacement at the level of the isolation …

The analysis method of wind vibration response of the seismically isolated structure with
viscoelastic damper and tuned mass damper (TMD) under Davenport wind load was studied …

Indeed, base isolation systems have gained significant attention from researchers and
designers over the last few decades. Within this context, various technologies were …

Adjacent base-isolated buildings with corridor bridges have a large seismic displacement
demand in their isolation layer, and therefore are prone to collision. Moreover, seismic wave …

Post-installed elevator projects have grown significantly in recent years in response to the
problem of insufficient vertical traffic capacity in existing buildings, but research on the …

The introduction and development of the base isolation systems, especially the friction
isolator device, were done recently to improve the capacity of adaptive behavior. The …

The attention towards seismic mitigation using passive control systems has increased
significantly over the last few decades to reduce earthquake demands and achieve the …
