About this project

Seismic Isolation Devices

Objective: Design and test seismic isolation devices to enhance earthquake safety in building structures.

Context: In India, improving structural resilience against earthquakes is vital for reducing casualties and economic loss.

What you'll build: You'll use CAD tools to design prototype isolation units, conduct dynamic analysis with ETABS/ANSYS, and select suitable materials for fabrication. Simulations and material testing will validate device performance under earthquake conditions.

Deliverables: Prototype isolation device, simulation and test reports, and system validation documentation.

Milestones
1.
Submit a brief project plan outlining your approach, timeline, and key resources for developing a seismic isolation device. Include a list of intended deliverables and any initial questions or assumptions. Ensure your plan is clear, feasible, and tailored to the seismic engineering context.
2. Literature review of devices
10 marks 7d
Compile a literature review summarizing at least five peer-reviewed sources on seismic isolation devices, focusing on their types, working principles, and effectiveness. Present findings in a structured document, highlighting gaps or opportunities relevant to your proposed device. Ensure all references are properly cited and directly inform your design direction.
3. Prototype design/model
10 marks 7d
Develop and submit a detailed prototype design or CAD model of your seismic isolation device, including labeled diagrams and a bill of materials. Clearly explain the design rationale and how it addresses seismic mitigation. Your submission should be sufficiently detailed for replication and demonstrate innovation or improvement over existing solutions.
4. Simulation and result analysis
15 marks 7d
Run simulations of your device under realistic seismic load scenarios using appropriate engineering software. Present simulation setup, input parameters, and results in a concise report with graphs and interpretation. Focus on demonstrating the device's performance and compare outcomes to baseline (unmitigated) cases.
5. System testing and validation
15 marks 9d
Conduct physical or virtual system tests to validate your device's effectiveness. Document the testing procedure, observed results, and any discrepancies from simulation. Submit a validation report that critically assesses performance, discusses limitations, and suggests improvements, supported by quantitative data and visual evidence where possible.
