Seismic isolation of viaduct piers by means of a rocking mechanism.

Rocking mechanism can be an effective means of seismic isolation, despite the fact that it is rarely conceived a possible alternative. In this study, the feasibility of utilizing a rocking mechanism for earthquake protection of slender viaduct pier structures is explored both analytically and experi...
