Analytical model of structures with frictional pendulum isolators.

This investigation centres on the development of a mathematically formal description of the dynamic response of structures isolated with the frictional pendulum system (FPS). It is shown that a theoretically 'exact' model can be formulated to account for large deformation kinematics and th...
