## Abstract Elevators in buildings serve a very important function and are among the critical components of an essential facility. They have several mechanical and electrical components that are known to be susceptible to damage during earthquake occurrences. The counterweights, being the heaviest,

The seismic response of a critical rotating machine either rigidly attached to a #oor or independently isolated housed within an initially aseismically designed or uncontrolled structure are investigated. A particular isolation system, the Resilient-Friction Base Isolator (RFBI), is employed. Finite

## Abstract The seismic response of single‐degree‐of‐freedom (SDOF) systems incorporating flag‐shaped hysteretic structural behaviour, with self‐centring capability, is investigated numerically. For a SDOF system with a given initial period and strength level, the flag‐shaped hysteretic behaviour i
