Innovative aseismic systems base
isolation and energy dissipation - hardware and application (2005)
"This paper gives an overview of base isolation
and energy dissipation
systems and devices. They have been proposed as one method by which
damage to the build enviorment can be mitigated and earthquake-
related losses reduced.This paper introduced such devices in the context
of an innovative class of building system known as protective
systems...."

Contemporary Architecture in Seismic
Regions (2009)
"This paper gives a brief examination of
contemporary architecture in
seismically active regions. It try to answer questions like: Is the
architecture of seismic regions different from that of seismically
quiescent areas?..."

Vibration control of footbridges (2010)
"Longer spans of new footbridges and
aesthetic requirements for
greater slenderness are resulting in footbridge structures prone to
vibrations. Stiffness and mass have decreased which has lead to
increased sensitivity to dynamic loadings..."
