Investigations into the benefits of base isolation for non-symmetric rigid blocks.
In this paper the influence of base isolation on the behaviour of a work of art has been analysed. To make things more realistic, the work of art has been modelled with a non-symmetrical rigid body, sitting on a base that is connected to a visco-elastic device, which represents the passive control s...
