This study aims to understand the behaviour of a base isolated l-shaped building under far
field and near field earthquake ground motion. A ten-storey l-shaped building was …

There exists a close relationship between the architectural plan of a building and its
performance under earthquake ground motion. A building with a regular structure takes less …

The response of the building to an earthquake not only depends on the characteristics of the
building but also on those of earthquake ground motion. The present study intends to …

Buildings with shear walls have substantially less sway in the direction of their orientation,
which results in significantly less damage to the building. Additionally, shear walls keep the …

Smart materials are the product of significant advances in industrial engineering and can be
used in a number of ways. This study examines a number of smart materials used in current …

The current study's goal is to conduct a comparative analysis of a T-shaped “base-isolated”
building under far-fault (FF) and near-fault (NF) earthquakes. A T-shaped base-isolated (BI) …

Shear walls have extremely high in-plane strength and stiffness and also can counter heavy
lateral loads making them quite advantageous in high-rise buildings. It is suggested to …

Seismic analysis deals with the evaluation of response of structures upon earthquakes and it
is a part of structural design process. This paper presents the summary and the results of the …
