Base-isolation system is designed to lengthen the period of the building. However, this can also increase wind-induced responses of the structure since wind forces have long duration and predominant energy on long periods. Furthermore, the mean component in the along-wind direction also causes certain base-isolation components, such as sliding bearings to become prone to creep phenomenon. Despite of this, evaluation methods of wind-induced response considering creep property on highrise base-isolated buildings with sliding bearings has not yet been fully investigated. Therefore, this paper examines the evaluation method on those buildings and clarifies the effect of creep property using timehistory analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
