For this reason, it helps and gives direction to students and researchers who interested in this subject or this field. The fundamental goal of this course is to be tought and to be understood the main concept of the theory, mechanical characteristics and how to be modelled of the seismic isolation. By examples of design and application of computer programs regarding seismic isolated structures such as buildings and bridges, the target of this subject is to being prepared from theory to application. |
