Motion analysis of furniture under seismic excitation using the finite element method

Abstract Improperly secured furniture, especially on the upper floors of high‐rise buildings under long‐period ground motion, can prove dangerous to human life. Fallen items of furniture such as chairs and desks could become fatal obstacles that prevent efficient evacuation. In this research, an eff...
