The historical development and practical implementation of structural base isolation systems
that work on the principle of friction are discussed in the light of analytical, numerical, and …

The isolation systems based on sliding friction have gained the attention of researchers
recently due to their low cost and high efficiency. The isolation layer plays a vital role in the …

In the design of structures isolated from the base, seismic base isolators are used for
earthquakes. It has a good acceleration-reducing effect in the control of vibrations caused by …

The out-of-plane flexural strength of masonry wallettes with different strengthening patterns
using geotextile was studied experimentally and numerically. Three different patterns viz …

Using a shake‐table, the effects of several stone pebble layer parameters (the layer
thickness, the fraction of pebbles, the pebble compaction, the pebble moisture, the vertical …

The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the efficiency of a low-cost and sustainable timber-
based energy dissipation system with recentering ability, which can be used as a seismic …

The in-plane strength of solid clay brick masonry panels strengthened with non-woven
geotextile was studied numerically and experimentally. The panels were strengthened on …

This paper presents the findings of an experimental investigation of the efficiency of several
low-cost frictional geotechnical seismic isolation methods on a rigid building model. A total …

A simple low-cost friction base-isolation system is examined for its applicability in reducing
seismic vulnerability of rural buildings. Four friction isolation interfaces, namely, marble …

The effect of geogrid on the efficiency of geotechnical seismic isolation using a layer of stone
pebbles is experimentally investigated in this study. Four different foundation support cases …
