Pounding in Base-Isolated Buildings Subjected to Underground Blasting
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The increase in the world population has led to a decrease in available resources across the globe. One such important resource is land to construct civil engineering structures. The unavailability of land resources has ...
Seismic Performance Upgrade of Elevated Water Tanks Utilizing Friction Dampers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Water storage tanks are essential structures in water distribution supply systems. During an earthquake, the damages incurred to water tanks may lead to disastrous loss of life and property. This is due to the low ductility, ...
Enhancing Blast Mitigation Strategies in RC Buildings: A Fuzzy Logic Approach to Optimal Damper Placement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The study examines the performance of RC buildings subjected to underground blast–induced forces, evaluating the performance of X-plate dampers in mitigating blast loading conditions. Analyzing 11-story buildings with ...
