A theoretical solution of the separation distance required to avoid siesmic pounding of two adjacent buildings simulated by linear multi-degree-of-freedom systems is presented. The analytical procedures are based on random vibration theory. The accuracy is demonstrated by simulation solutions. Compa

Results of a parameter study on eccentric pounding of two symmetric single storey systems under seismic excitation are presented. Linear behaviour is assumed, and pounding effect is considered using the restitution coefficient approach. The effect of impact eccentricity is studied on two sets of sym
## Abstract Numerical simulations and parametric studies have been used to investigate the influence of potential poundings of seismically isolated buildings with adjacent structures on the effectiveness of seismic isolation. Poundings are assumed to occur at the isolation level between the seismic
Coupling adjacent buildings with supplemental damping devices is a practical and e!ective approach to mitigating structural seismic response. This paper is intended to develop a method for analyzing the random seismic response of a structural system consisting of two adjacent buildings interconnecte
