Lateral-torsional coupling in asymmetric-plan buildings results in an increase of lateral displacement in the end-points of the building plan and therefore the production [...]

Physical characteristics of various recorded ground motions during earthquakes are naturally very different based on various types of fault mechanisms. Generally, to dete [...]

Supplemental viscous dampers with suitable distribution are very effective to mitigate the earthquake induced damage in buildings with asymmetric plan. The main advantage [...]
