Determination of Peak Impact Force for Buildings Exposed to Structural Pounding during Earthquakes

Determination of Peak Impact Force for Buildings Exposed to Structural Pounding during Earthquakes

Structural pounding between adjacent, insufficiently separated buildings, or bridge segments, has been repeatedly observed during seismic excitations. Such earthquake-induced collisions may cause severe structural damage or even lead to the collapse of colliding structures. The aim of the present pa...
