Component and shaking table tests for full-scale multiple friction pendulum system.

The use of base isolation in developed countries including the U.S. and Japan has already been recognized as a very effective method for upgrading the seismic resistance of structures. In this study, an advanced base-isolation system called the multiple friction pendulum system (MFPS) is investigate...
