Earthquake Vibration Control of Multi Storey Building Using Base Isolation System: A Review

Abstract: Earthquake, any sudden shaking of the ground caused by the passage of seismic waves through Earth's rocks. Major earthquake in recent years have highlighted the big concern of modern seismic design concept for the resilience of building. The overall goals of this thesis aim to design structural vibration control using smart material and devices and to elucidate the factors determining their robustness, feasibility, and adaptability for earthquake -resistant and resilient building. SAP2000 is a tool used for creating and analysing structural models. It offers many features across a single, customizable user interface, allowing engineers working on transportation, industrial, public works, or other facilities to generate complex models and run comprehensive tests. Earthquakes shake the ground surface, can cause buildings to collapse, disrupt transport and services, and can cause fires. They can trigger landslides and tsunami. Earthquakes occur mainly as a result of plate tectonics, which involves blocks of the Earth moving about the Earth's surface.
