Main Features and Conclusions of the 1999 International Post-SMiRT ConferenceSeminar on Seismic Isolation, Passive Energy Dissipation and Active Control ofVibrations of Structures

摘要

Summarised in this paper is the state-of-the-art on seismic protection through innovative anti-seismic techniques,namely seismic isolation (SI), passive energy dissipation (ED) and active control (AC), based on the information collected atthe 6th International Post-SMiRT Conference Seminar on Seismic Isolation, Passive Energy Dissipation and Active Controlof Vibrations of Structures held at Cheju (Korea) in August 1999 and even more recent information which became availableto the authors. Reported is information on the most recent applications of such techniques, together with the progress of R&Dactivities at word-wide level, availability of design rules and the related issues and needs for further activity. With regard tothe latter, somewhat more detailed information is reported for European and especially, Italian applications.
