Dynamic response of structures supported on the sliding systems to bi-directional (i.e., two horizontal components) earthquake and harmonic ground motion is investigated. The superstructure is assumed to be rigid and the frictional forces mobilized at the interface of sliding system are assumed to h

Seismic response of a one-storey structure with sliding support to bidirectional (i.e. two horizontal components) earthquake ground motion is investigated. Frictional forces, which are mobilized at the sliding support, are assumed to have ideal Coulomb-friction characteristics. Coupling effects due
This study presents the dynamic behaviour of a rigid block which rests on a footing supported by a spring and a dashpot on a rigid base. The response of the rigid body is examined carefully when the base is excited by a harmonic force. It is found that a periodic motion appears in three different mo
To study the effectiveness of a sliding support for the isolation of structures from damaging ground motion, the model of a shear-core supported on a sliding foundation and subjected to random ground motion in two orthogonal directions is considered here. A fictitious spring model is adopted to deal
The ground motions produced by an earthquake at the multiple support points of large structures can differ considerably. In this study, the quasi-static, the dynamic and the total structural responses of a multiply supported rigid plate to spatially varying multiple ground motion inputs are analysed
