ABSTRACT
This study demonstrates that friction isolation systems, especially those equipped with a friction controllable device, offer more desirable base isolation characteristics. This demonstration was done through experimental, analytical and numerical effort, by developing sliding base isolation systems with and without friction controllable devices and by developing sliding base isolation systems with and without friction controllable devices and by verifying their base isolation capabilities for bridges and buildings through shake table tests and a numerical simulation study.(AU)
