33rd Annual Study of Logistics and Transportation Trends: Puzzling path forward Logistics professionals navigating their path forward face challenging market conditions, an evolving regulatory ...
The performance of a well-designed layer of sand, geo-grid, geo-textiles and composites like layer of sand mixed with shredded tyre (rubber) as low-cost base isolators is studied in shake table tests ...
Isolators had to be analyzed as part of the design for the state’s Emergency Operations Center near Olympia. Owners ranging from public agencies to financial institutions and research facilities have ...
Much of the world's population lives and works in seismically active areas, with little protection from earthquakes. Fortunately, engineers have found that building with rubber is a surprisingly ...
