In this present study aims to evaluate the performance of base isolation device under different intensity blast induced ground excitations for an elevated water tank staging. mainly focused improve isolator and minimize damage structure. To know two models are considered one is fixed model another supported with both non-linear time history analysis carried out help SAP 2000 software subjected ...

We revisit a unique building system including base-isolation, building-connection hybrid control system. The base-isolation withstands pulse-type earthquake ground motions effectively and the resists long-duration efficiently. A simple smart critical response evaluation method without nonlinear time-history analysis is proposed for this under near-fault motions. An analytical expression of maxi...

This study explored the seismic response of a house supporting base sides with polymeric displacement control material and by magnetically levitating foundation base. In this paper, we explore possibility efficacy seismic-isolated detached as described above from both shaking table experiment model three-dimensional finite element analysis. The showed stable its acceleration was significantly r...

A small base isolation system using a new device that used friction force was developed. In this paper, dynamic characteristics of the system were investigated by an experiment using artificial seismic wave. The bearing combination of three cases, four spherical metal bearings, two spherical metal and two marble plate bearings, four marble plate bearings, was done in the experiment. The peak ac...
