Foundation Plate Optimization TVRDA Katarina1, a 1Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Department of Structural Mechanics, Radlinskeho 11, SK-813 68 Bratislava, Slovakia akatarina.tvrda@stuba.sk Keywords: Winkler´s foundation, optimal design, thickness, minimum volume Abstract.
Many world leading universities deal with this problem, in particular when proposing the concrete tasks for the practice, in particular in the air force industry, the construction of ships as well as building and civil engineering structures.
The importance of optimization of structural stiffness is also increasing in civil engineering, particularly in optimization of structures stored on the elastic foundation.
Nowadays, one-parametric Winkler’s model of elastic foundation belongs to the most common and used in engineering praxis, Pasternak’s and Vlasov’s models (but also Filonenko-Boroditsch’s, Hetenyi’s and others) belongs to two-parametric models, introducing the influence of surround foundation through shear forces.

The Research Status and Prospect of Passive Energy Dissipation Technology in Fields of Structural Engineering Min Chen a, Guojing Heb College of Civil Engineering and Mechanics, Central South University of Forestry and Technology, Changsha 410004,Hunan,China achenmin2028@163.com, bcegjhe@hotmail.com Keywords: Passive energy dissipation; Performance-based design; Sustainable development.
In the light of the excellent performance of various energy dissipation devices in area of mechanical engineering, kinds of dampers had been produced and installed in engineering structure for energy dissipation.
The use of Tuned Liquid Dampers (TLD) to minimize the structural vibration in civil engineering was started from the mid 1980's [6], whose emergence and successful application in engineering structure has already inspired the enthusiasm of many scholars to research.
