TLDR
In this article, a structural model with raft footing has been used as a base isolation media and experiments and analytical work has been performed on the model with a raft footing and found encouraging results.Abstract:
Generally seismic isolation is achieved by supporting the structure on laminated rubber bearings, friction pendulum bearings, roller bearings etc. Very little work has been performed using soil as a base isolation media. Experiments and analytical work has been performed on a structural model with raft footing and found encouraging results. Details of this work are presented in this paper.read more

Large-scale seismic isolation through regulated liquefaction: a feasibility study
TL;DR: In this article, a large scale seismic isolation (LSSI) is proposed, which consists of a thick nonliquefiable crust layer and an underlying engineered pre-saturated liquefiable layer bounded by two impermeable thin clay layers.
