Re-using tennis balls as low-cost seismic isolation devices: Experimental Investigation

Autor: Katsamakas, Antonios A., Chollet, Miro, Eyyi, Stefan, Vassiliou, Michalis F.

Seismic isolation is one of the most effective methods of reducing earthquake-induced damage to buildings. However, the associated high cost makes this technology non-applicable in residential structures in the developing world. This paper presents a

Seismic protection of unreinforced masonry buildings by means of low cost elastomeric isolation systems

Autor: Ahmad Basshofi Habieb, Tavio Tavio, Federico Milani, Gabriele Milani

Thousands of rural houses in developing countries with high seismicity were built without adequate seismic protection due to economical reason. This paper discusses a possibility to improve the seismic protection of typical unreinforced masonry in de
