Comparative Evaluation of Seismic Resistance, Damping, and Base Isolation under Earthquake Loading Using 3D-Printed Building Models
This study investigates the effectiveness of different seismic design strategies in improving the earthquake resilience of buildings. Motivated by the 2011 Tohoku earthquake in Japan, the research focuses on three major seismic systems: seismic resistance, seismic damping, and seismic base isolation. Seismic resistance...
