Simplified methods for design of base-isolated structures in the long-period high-damping range.

A recent trend in the design of base-isolated structures is the extension of the natural period and the incorporation of high damping. This paper shows that the existing simplified methods perform less accurately in this field of application, mainly due to inappropriate use of spectral data and insu...
