## Abstract The seismic analysis of a reactor building on a slidingβtype base isolation is performed by way of the hybrid frequencyβtimeβdomain procedure. The frequency dependence of the foundation stiffness coefficients is duly accounted for in the analysis, although the problem is nonβlinear. The
The purpose of this paper is to examine the response records and thereby the performance of the base-isolated University of Southern California (USC) hospital building during the M, = 6.8 Northridge (California) earthquake of 17 January 1994. The data retrieved from the building is the first set of
