Sequential Ground Motion Effects on the Behavior of a Base-Isolated RCC Building

The sequential ground motion effects on the dynamic responses of reinforced concrete containment (RCC) buildings with typical isolators are studied in this paper. Although the base isolation technique is developed to guarantee the security and integrity of RCC buildings under single earthquakes, sei...
