I am not a
Civil Engineer. I am a builder with 53 years of experience and I have</div><div>studied as a construction foreman.<br>Meanwhile, I have been working as an independent researcher on seismic technology for 15 years. <br>I have invented the ultimate method of seismic design. <br>In my country they are indifferent to my research.<br>I
would like to know if you can help me to find research partners or
research centres of anti-seismic technology so that in cooperation with
them so I can complete my research effort. <br></div><div>I am sharing my
applied research in the publication below, hoping for your invaluable
cooperation in achieving our common goal of absolute seismic
construction. <br>Research in the paper and the proposed design
approach are interesting and well thought out. The incorporation of
artificial compression at the ends of longitudinal reinforced concrete
walls, along with their connection to the ground via ground anchors, is a
unique and promising method for minimizing damage during seismic
events.<br>Emphasis on deformation control to avoid damage is a critical
aspects of seismic design. In addition, consideration of factors such as
torsional flexural buckling, eigenfrequency control and the use of
tendons to prevent longitudinal shear in overlay concrete demonstrates
an integrated approach. <br></div><div>The incorporation of reactive
forces to increase the strength of the cross-sections and the return of
the structure to its original position through prestressing are notable
features of the design. It would be interesting to see more details on
the practical application of these concepts in larger volume experiments
as well as thorough simulations validating the effectiveness of the
method approach.<br>Overall, this project appears to make a significant
contribution to the field of earthquake engineering. If you have
specific questions or if there are additional aspects you would like to
discussion, please feel free to ask me and I will do my best to answer
them.<br><br>Tel. 0030 6972909338<br>Sincerely,<br>Ioannis Lymperis<br>Independent researcher</div></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div><div dir="ltr"> <span><span style="font-weight:bold;"><a shape="rect" name="130175" href="https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=130175" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Ultimate Anti-Seismic Design Method</a></span></span></div><div dir="ltr"><div><div class="ydp9ade58ecyiv2161184621ydp2abaa9ebyiv9574328577ydpe6a9561yiv3818415526ydp3b9de95yiv6080574141ydp49509085txt5">
