A reinforced furniture truss uses controlled top collapse and load-bearing beams to form a safe triangular shelter under falling debris.
Segmented McCormick optimization and integer prediction speed real-time semi-active damper control for stronger building vibration resistance.
By tuning gas chamber volume to the fluid system's natural frequency, this floating isolator suppresses earthquake excitation of structures and mounted devices.
A membrane liquid-gas interface and adjustable gas spring let this tuned liquid damper reach low frequencies for slender building vibration control.
Multiple small façade and slab damping units replace bulky top-mounted TMDs, cutting building acceleration while preserving usable space.
