The phrase "an isolated structure" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe a building or entity that is separate or detached from others, often in a physical or metaphorical sense.
Example: "The research team focused on an isolated structure in the forest, which had remained untouched for decades."
Alternatives: "a detached structure" or "a standalone structure".
At low provided damping levels, intense pounding of an isolated structure results in structural accelerations higher than those of its fixed-base case.
Furthermore, a response-history analysis of an isolated structure is presented and compared for two isolator models: the two-spring model and the model proposed herein.
It was not, as such, an isolated structure but was always part of an architectural complex.
The building is not an isolated structure, and it is connected with a secondary structure in its fourth and fifth floors.
What's in there? A. The anchorage, which is sectioned into medieval-looking arches, is one nook of Manhattan that has apparently been overlooked by wild-eyed developers (no doubt offending the ghost of Washington Roebling, who planned the land mass of the bridge as an urban complex, not an isolated structure, with commercial space in the arches along Frankfort Street).
To this end, he designed Southdale not as an isolated structure, but as one element of a masterplan including hundreds of hectares of residential, commercial, medical, office and mixed-use projects around a lake and public park, most of which the developers ignored.
The influence of nonlinear inertia as a function of acceleration, velocity, and displacement is investigated for an asymmetric isolated structure.
It is shown that these parameters have considerable influence on the response of a base isolated structure and the effectiveness of base isolation in reducing the seismic forces in the superstructure.
A TLD is found to be an effective means to control the wind induced vibration of a base isolated structure.
The third author of this paper has previously proposed the installation of a tuned-mass damper (TMD) to reduce the displacement demand on a base isolated structure.
A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed strategy to a 10-storey frictional base isolated structure being subject to the El Centro earthquake.
