Abstract:This research is mainly dealt with determining the effectiveness of base isolation in multiple degree of freedom systems (MDOF) of different fundamental natural time periods (FNTP). Base isolation devices avert the detrimental ground shaking to maximum extends and mitigates the lateral forces caused by earthquakes. In this research, it is intended to study about under what circumstances base isolation system will be effective in reducing the lateral forces caused by earthquakes. Every MDOF system will be havin… Show more
