Earthquake-resilience of storage tanks: using an innovative anchorage system
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
In this study, a new anchorage system has been introduced by employing the recently developed Resilient Slip Friction Dampers (RSFDs) as ductile self-centring hold-downs for liquid storage tanks. This new anchorage mechanism ...
Seismic damage avoidance design of moment resisting frames with innovative resilient connection
(New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2020-04-22)
Moment-resisting frames are one of the efficient lateral-load resisting systems in terms of providing architectural freedom in design and imposing smaller forces on foundations. Recent major earthquakes have resulted in ...
