Optimum Design of Curved Surface Sliders Based on Site-Specific Seismic Input and Its Sensitivity

The design of curved surface sliders (CSS) based on the elastic response spectrum method with site-specific seismic input is commonly made by trial and error, whereby the design does not necessarily minimize structural acceleration. This paper therefore describes the optimum CSS design for minimum s...
