Abstract
Concerns over public health have brought the treatment of structural base isolation in river basin management to the forefront of engineering practice. A mathematical model of the system was formulated and solved using Kalman filtering. Predicted values agreed with the measurements to within 57%, confirming the accuracy of the model. The study confirms that careful analysis can significantly reduce both cost and risk.
