Liquefaction induced kinematic loads on piles and inertia loads - literature review and recommendations for design
(2023-04-19)Earthquake shaking can cause soil liquefaction in certain types of soil. The associated loss of soil strength and stiffness coupled with any lateral ground movement can be damaging to buildings and their foundations. Pile ... -
Optimum service and seismic structural protection with adaptive dampers and base isolators for immediate occupancy after the earthquake
(2023-04-19)To improve serviceability of important civil structures during seismic action, base isolators and dampers need to perform with high efficiency independent of the ground shaking level. In service and seismic actions, base ... -
A Review of the State of Practice for Fluid Viscous Damper Applications in North America and New Zealand
(2023-04-19)The use of Fluid Viscous Dampers (FVDs) for retrofit and new construction applications is growing around the world. FVDs provide an effective way to reduce seismic demands on structures. In retrofit applications, this ... -
Comparison of optimal versus a convenient distribution method of viscous damper design
(2023-04-19)A simple and convenient method often adopted by practicing engineers designing supplemental viscous dampers to a building is to calculate damping coefficients of viscous dampers corresponding to a desired added damping ... -
A Practical Approach to Design Supplemental Damped Isolation Systems
(2023-04-19)With an update to the NZS1170.5 design hazard expected in 2023, New Zealand designers will need innovative solutions in-order to manage potentially significant increases in design hazard, particularly around the lower North ... -
Shake-table testing of resilient, low-cost seismic isolators based on rolling rubber spheres
(2023-04-19)This study presents the results of a large-scale experimental investigation of resilient, low-cost seismic isolators based on deformable rubber spheres. The isolators roll on flat or spherical (concave) concrete surfaces. ... -
Shaking Table Tests on RC Frames strengthened with Simplified Friction Damper
(2023-04-19)This study investigates the behavior of two reinforced concrete (RC) frames strengthened with simplified friction damper subjected to dynamic loading conditions. The simplified friction damper was designed with intent to ...
