Seismic Isolation Strategies for Earthquake-Resistant Construction
This book presents unique, modern, and cost-effective seismic isolation strategies to make existing buildings earthquake-proof. Learn how these highly efficient methods can be implemented quickly, easily, and without interrupting building use, demonstrated on real-world examples.
This book details an innovative finite element (FE) formulation for post-tensioned (PT) concrete. It provides MATLAB code to simulate bonded, unbonded, or partially bonded tendons, including sliding, friction, and anchor seating loss, with reduced computational power.
