Article
Geotechnical seismic isolation is a recently emerged isolation technique to prevent the damaging effects of the earthquake on the building structures and nonstructural components. The study analyzes the effect...
Chapter and Conference Paper
An earthquake is a significant disaster that destroys structures all over the world. The structure must be
Chapter and Conference Paper
In the present situation, most of the structures are made of Reinforced Concrete (RC) because of readily available raw materials, expertise, and most cost-effective construction. Any building/infrastructure lo...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Turbulent fluctuation of the liquid medium under lateral excitation is a major area of concern due to the potential severities it may cause if the contained structure is damaged. Therefore, this study focuses ...
Article
The response of liquid-storage tanks under seismic loading is a key research area. The study of free vibration characteristics is a prerequisite for understanding the dynamic behaviour of liquid tanks under se...
Article
This study examines the effectiveness of reinforcing the soil with coir mat, a natural material, to act as a seismic soil-isolation medium. A 3D finite element simulation has been carried out on models of five...
Article
The proposed study investigates the effectiveness of reinforcing the soft soil by a coir mat, a natural material, to act as a seismic soil-isolation medium. A 3D finite element simulation in PLAXIS 3D software...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The berthing structures including piles and diaphragm walls are supported on soft marine soils. The soft soils under severe loading are likely to undergo vertical and lateral movement. The anchored diaphragm w...

Bridge is the structure that is seen several dynamic loads unlike other structures. Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH) said that 10,876 people were killed due to potholes in the year 2015, which d...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Bridge is the structure that is expected several normal and postulated dynamic loads. Vehicle collision with the bridge pier is one of the postulated dynamic loads considered in the design provisions. The Indi...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Seismic isolation is a technique that has been used around the world to protect building structures, non-structural components and content from the damaging effects of earthquake ground shaking. The present st...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Base isolation is found to be a very efficient earthquake-resistant construction method. When base isolation is introduced, the transfer of large amount of inertia forces is prevented by the moving action of a...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Although rigid floor diaphragm is a reasonable assumption for seismic analysis, certain building configurations may exhibit diaphragm flexibility. Detailed investigations have been carried out on modelling of ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Understanding of the beam behaviour in torsion along with bending and shear is very important for the complex design of buildings and as well as recent developments in neo-concretes. An experimental investigat...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Liquid storage tanks are lifeline structures, which should be designed with utmost care. Any damage to a tank, which is used to store hazardous liquid is catastrophic. The estimation of fundamental natural fre...
Chapter and Conference Paper
During earthquakes, adjacent structures may collide with each other due to different dynamic characteristics. When buildings vibrate out-of-phase and the separation gap provided between buildings is not suffic...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The seismic waves originating from an earthquake source undergoes significant amplification on its way toward the surface. The dynamic properties of the soil such as shear modulus/stiffness degradation and dam...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The objective of the study is to understand the seismicity of the Western coast and its adjoining regions whose seismic potential has not been evaluated so far. The study area encompasses a major portion of Ka...
Article
Multi-storey buildings with complicated geometry and structural systems are common due to various possibilities offered by advanced construction methods. When these irregular buildings are subjected to lateral...
