Seismic response control of smart sliding isolated buildings using variable stiffness systems an experimental and numerical study.

Effectiveness of a new semiactive independently variable stiffness (SAIVS) device in reducing seismic response of sliding base isolated buildings is evaluated analytically and experimentally. Through analytical and experimental study of force?displacement behaviour of the SAIVS device, it is shown t...
