New formulation for estimating the damping parameter of the Kelvin-Voigt model for seismic pounding simulation

Seismic pounding between adjoining buildings frequently causes serious damage; although collision can be avoided with proper separation, can still occur due to code non-fulfillment, loose requirements of old codes, and seismicity underestimation. Inside this context, this work deals with collision b...
