Abstract
The seismic response of a 2-story reinforced concrete shear wall structure seismically isolated using unbonded rectangular fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators (FREIs) is investigated. Using rectangular isolators, rather than square or circular, for buildings with masonry or reinforced concrete structural walls allows a more uniform distribution of the gravity loads and eliminates the requirement of additional wall beam elements. Time history analyses are conducted for both fixed-base (FB) and base-isolated (BI) configurations using 10 earthquake ground motions, selected to match the design response spectrum. The properties of the isolators are taken from lateral cyclic test results carried out on scale model FREIs. A pivot-elastic model, previously introduced by the authors, is used to model the lateral response of the isolators in the time history analyses. The peak response values of the BI structure are significantly reduced compared with the results for the FB structure. It is concluded that unbonded rectangular FREIs can be effectively designed and used to seismically isolate masonry or reinforced concrete shear wall structures.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
