It has been observed from previous large earthquakes that weakening the structural foundation can reduce damage of structure itself by allowing a rocking motion to release seismic energy, and this design philosophy is gradually applied new constructions. In paper, simplified model process rigid block proposed, equation derived, parameter analysis carried out. was found height–width ratio dampin...

We consider a differential quasivariational inequality for which we state and prove the continuous dependence of solution with respect to data. This convergence result allows us existence at least one optimal pair an associated control problem. Finally, illustrate our abstract results in study free boundary problem describes equilibrium viscoelastic body frictionless contact foundation made rig...

This position paper summarizes our perspectives on the selection of next-generation elliptic curves for standardization. It also contains generation algorithms intended as a foundation for choosing elliptic curves for cryptography in a simple, consistent and rigid way.

Abstract This paper deals with statistical and modeling uncertainty on the estimation of long-term extrapolated extreme responses in a monopile offshore wind turbine. The is addressed by studying effect simulation length. Modeling explored evaluating effects considering rigid flexible foundation. soil's flexibility taken into account improved apparent fixity method. To identify most relevant en...

In structural analysis, the base of structures is usually assumed to be completely rigid. However, the combination of foundation and the subsurface soil, makes in fact a flexible-base for the soil-structure system. It is well-known that the structural responses can be significantly affected by incorporating the Soil-structure Interaction (SSI) effects. The aim of the present study is to provide...

This article deals with the interaction between wave effects in mounts and resonances offoundations inflexible vibration isolation systems. A new model is proposed that is represented as a rigid mass supported by two linear unidirectional isolators on a flexible foundation beam, whose closed-form solutions for transmissibility and response ratio are then obtained, with which the influence of wa...
