Dimensional analysis of the earthquake-induced pounding between adjacent structures.

In this paper the dynamic response of two and three pounding oscillators subjected to pulse-type excitations is revisited with dimensional analysis. Using Buckingham's Π-theorem the number of variables that govern the response of the system is reduced by three. When the response is presented in...
