Using the improved inner slider to enhance overturning resistance of DFPB-isolated structure subjected to poundings

J Zhang, Y Li, Y Ding, X Guan - Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2023 - Elsevier
The overturning resistance of structures isolated by double friction pendulum bearing
(DFPB) would be significantly reduced due to the presence of pounding. To this end, an …

Pounding induced overturning resistance of FPB-isolated structures considering soil-structure-interactions

J Zhang, Y Li, C Zhang - Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2024 - Elsevier
This study explores the overturning resistance performance of friction pendulum bearing
(FPB) isolated structure when pounding occurs during earthquake actions, and considers …

Heterogeneous self-arrested ruptures leading to spatial variability of radiated energy and Doppler effect of the observed corner frequency

P Venegas-Aravena - Journal of Seismology, 2024 - Springer
The study of the strong ground motion is of utmost relevance because the amplitude of
seismic waves and their frequency content could severely damage structures. As both the …
