Low computational efficiency and non-linearity behaviour make the simulation of the overall
building structure problematic to attain with a single dynamic or static method. Thus, this …

Architectural aspects of buildings, such as the shape of the plan, play an important role in
defining the seismic behavior of the building and the future damages structural and non …

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 …

The friction pendulum system (FPS) is a crucial tool for seismic protection. However,
effectiveness in curved bridges, especially controlling torsional moments (TMs), has not …

The selection of bearings for a bridge is crucial from a design point of view for an engineer.
In India, there are several bearing types available for bridge seismic protection. However …

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) …

Curved bridges have seen widespread application in complex transportation networks,
including interchanges and river crossings. If the displacements caused by an earthquake …

Bridge bearings perform the dual function of transferring reaction forces from the super-
structure to the sub-structure and facilitating the venting of possible extra stresses that may …

In the current study, on different soil conditions, the seismic response of a bridge with and
without bearings was investigated by scaling the acceleration time history to the different …
