| Summary: | "This book introduces important concepts in the study of earthquakes as they relate to the retrofitting of structures to be earthquakeresistant. It investigates the pounding effects for base isolated buildings, the soil structure interaction effects on adjacent buildings considering impact effect and the seismic protection of adjacent buildings, and the mitigation of earthquake induced vibration of two adjacent structures. These concepts include a new understanding of controlled systems with passive-active dampers and semiactive dampers. The passive control strategy of coupled buildings is investigated for seismic protection in comparison to active and semi-active control strategies."--Provided by publisher |
