Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Impact between Adjacent Structures during of Earthquake and their Effective ParametersAlireza M. Goltabar, R. Shamstabar Kami, A. EbadiIn this research, buildings with 2-15 stories and different heights were put together using GAP joint element and nonlinear time-history analyses were done for Tabas, Elcentro and Sakaria accelerographs. The responses of both impact and non-impact cases were compared. With results analyzing, we found out that the impact increased the responses in taller buildings but decreased them in shorter ones. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,795 accessesView PDFCite
