Floor response spectra–oriented acceleration mitigation of base-isolated structures with rate-independent damping

Engineering structures accommodating acceleration-sensitive non-structural equipment exhibit an intrinsic incompatibility in seismic demand control, as base isolation effectively suppresses inter-story drift, whereas the introduction of linear viscous dampers to restrain isolator...

An algebraic analytical approach for redundant parameter analysis of serial and parallel mechanisms

Redundant parameter analysis is crucial for the kinematic calibration of mechanisms. To address this challenge, the paper proposes an analytical redundant parameter analysis approach based on physical-to-algebraic transformation for both serial and parallel mechanisms. First, sin...
