This research studies the effectiveness of a tuned mass damper (TMD) to balance the structural damage on asymmetric nonlinear structures subjected to a unidirectional sei [...]

Tanks for hazardous liquid storage have proved to be vulnerable when destructive earthquakes appear. Their collapse leads to the spillage of the contained substances (fla [...]

It is analyzed the seismic response of a 19 levels building for residential use typical from Mexico, said building structured with frames and wall made of reinforced conc [...]

An analytical formulation was developed to simulate the earthquake behavior of wine barrel stacks. The model is cast using the fundamental steps of kinematics, action-def [...]
