for buildings.

Resumen: The effects of near-field ground motions with large velocity pulses have motivated passive damping
requirements for the protection of seismically isolated structures. Structures in which the first mode
damping exceeds 20% or 30% typically do not exhibit classical modes, and simulation via a simple
superposition of uncoupled second order equations is not possible. When the damping is produced
by viscous or linear visco-elastic devices, we can, however, gain insight into the dynamic behavior
of these structures using a convenient first-order formulation and frequency domain methods.
When the damping effects are created by non-linear mechanisms such as yielding or friction, the
behavior of the structure is amplitude dependent and analyses are commonly carried out in the
time domain. In this paper, frequency domain analysis and earthquake time history analysis are
applied to study the influence of isolation damping on higher-mode effects and inter-story drift
ratios. Because higher mode
effects, plan irregularities, and bi-directional ground motions are all important attributes of the
dynamic behavior of these structural systems, a simple comparison of isolation damping
mechanisms can not be carried out via simple single or two degree of freedom realizations. In order
to incorporate these important details in the study of the dynamic behavior of these structures, a
set of 8-story proto-type building models with L-shaped floor plans, different isolation periods,
isolation damping characteristics, and levels of isolation stiffnesses are examined. [Copyright
