Finite element method for designing HF2V device force capacity
Vishnupriya, Vishnupriya; Chase, James Geoffrey; Rodgers, Geoffrey; Zhou, Cong (2020-04-22)Supplemental energy dissipation devices are increasingly used to protect structures, limiting loads transferred to structural elements and absorbing significant response energy without sacrificial structural damage. High ... -
Modelling of vertical control in magnetic levitation for building isolation during earthquakes
Crozier, Elsa; Zhou, Cong; Chase, James Geoffrey; Rodgers, Geoffrey (2020-04-22)Earthquakes cause significant damage to buildings due to strong vibration of the ground. Levitating houses using magnets and electromagnets would provide a complete isolation of ground motion for protecting buildings from ... -
