Abstract

The paper addresses the problem of issues relevant to approaching and modelling propagation of dynamic vibrations, and handling and mitigating their effects on buildings and occupants, caused by different factors. Vibrations may derive from a number of different sources of natural and/or anthropic type, ranging from exceptional phenomena such as strong earthquakes, storms waves, explosions to swarms, machinery, menworks, railway or road traffic and so on. Besides safety issues more related to single strong intensity events, new themes should be complied with relevant to serviceability and human comfort during recursive or time-continuity low-intensity dynamic phenomena that during time may cause to structure and people inside damage, desease or discomfort. Attenuation objectives require as a premise new theoretical and operative models for properly representing their propagation mode and transmission from the source origin to the building/person receptor, and on this basis the development and setup of suitable approaches and devices to mitigation. In the paper some approaches to modeling and design are outlined whose effectiveness is proven by numerical results.
