A Soil-Dependent Approach for the Design of Novel Negative Stiffness Seismic Protection Devices
Conventional base isolation (BI) techniques require a great reduction in the fundamental frequency of the system in order to mitigate the structural dynamic responses due to earthquake excitations. However, the resulting base displacements are large and can cause utility connection problems, renderi...
