SEISMIC EVALUATION OF A SIX STOREY FRAME STRUCTURE CONSIDERING SOIL EARTHQUAKE RECORDS FROM BALKAN REGION
This study emphasizes numerical modeling of soil medium including boundary conditions, rather than the conventional focus on input earthquake accelerations with simplified Winkler soil models typically used in soil-structure interaction (SSI) problems. A six-story frame structure founded on relatively soft ground is numerically simulated in ANSYS u...

STRUCTURAL CONTROL SYSTEMS: EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION AND IZIIS EXPERIENCE
This paper presents a critical review of passive and semi-active structural control systems for improving seismic performance and resilience. It synthesizes fundamental control principles with recent advances in energy dissipation technologies. Emphasis is placed on experimental validation to bridge the gap between analytical models and real struct...
