A modal procedure for non-linear analysis of multistorey structures with high-damping base-isolation systems was proposed. Two different isolation devices were considered in the analysis: an high-damping laminated rubber bearing and a lead-rubber bearing. Starting from deformational properties verif
## Abstract In the paper a simplified nonlinear method has been applied to the analysis of baseβisolated structures. In the first part, a threeβlinear idealization of the capacity curve is proposed. The initial stiffness is defined based on the first yielding point in the superstructure, whereas th
## Abstract To foster the use of seismic isolation in structures, existing guidelines strive to formulate design methods which are simple and accessible to nonβspecialized engineers. On the other hand, not all of the simplifying provisions adopted by the norms can be said to have been adequately te
## Abstract A recent trend in the design of baseβisolated structures is the extension of the natural period and the incorporation of high damping. This paper shows that the existing simplified methods perform less accurately in this field of application, mainly due to inappropriate use of spectral
