Howard University professor Claudia Marin-Artieda at the NEES at Buffalo laboratory with her research team and the "Yahoo frame." With 40 servers installed, the frame was shaken with servers in ...

The study of seismic isolation systems has markedly advanced in recent decades, offering innovative pathways to shield structures and sensitive equipment from earthquake-induced forces. At its core, ...

Researchers have developed a novel negative-stiffness isolation device that offers a pioneering solution for seismic protection. The device, designed to provide multidirectional negative stiffness and ...

Research on the application of seismic isolation methods will lead to better protection of buildings, infrastructure, and sensitive equipment subjected to dynamic loads caused by seismic activity. The ...

ITT Corp.’s Control Technologies business is partnering with the Power Transmission Division of Siemens AG to engineer new seismic damping and isolation systems that use ITT’s Enidine brand ...

A team led by the Japan Atomic Energy Agency has concluded a series of large-scale demonstration tests for an innovative new floating seismic isolation system intended for pairing with small modular ...

NZ researchers say that waste tires could be reused as seismic isolation for medium-rise buildings. As in most nations formed near fault lines, earthquakes are seen as a part of life in New Zealand, ...

An experimental program using a 6 degree-of-freedom earthquake simulator at the University at Buffalo was executed to generate data for supporting validation of numerical models for seismic ...
