Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction
… in seismic building analysis to include dynamic soil-structure interaction. The analysis utilizes soil impedance functions for a structural foundation. Most of the computational results refer to a rigid mat foundation. The damping that arises in a soil-structure system will generally be …

A computational framework for dynamic soil-structure interaction analysis
… dissertation presents: (i) a simple but general soil model; and (ii) a general computational framework, enabling the development of efficient interactive software for the analysis of dynamic soil-structure interaction problems.With regard to the model, a general, non-associative, elasto-plastic …

Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction In Buildings With Oil Dampers
Research into the seismic performance of structures with oil dampers have so far been driven primarily by the structural engineering community, with influential experimental work on the topic originating mainly from large scale shaking table testing of fixed-base prototype frames. Despite …

Dynamic soil-structure interaction of underground structures adjacent to tall buildings
Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'U of I Access', the embargo will last until 2023-12-01

Testing and constitutive modelling of saturated interfaces in dynamic soil-structure interaction.
… stress-strain-pore-pressure behavior of cohesive soil interfaces under dynamic loading is developed using the new unified disturbed state concept (DSC). The model is based on elasto-plasticity theory as defined by the hierarchical single surface (HISS) plasticity model. The proposed model is …

The dynamic soil structure interaction of shallow foundations on dry sand beds
… movements between the foundation and underlying soil. This results in a rigid coupling of the foundation with the soil and hence the full transmission of the seismic energy into the foundation. Consequently the structure located on the foundation either has to be isolated from the shaking through …

Determining seismic response of mid-rise building frames considering dynamic soil-structure interaction
Structures are often mounted on layers of soil unless bedrock is very close to the ground surface. Based on the fact that seismic waves pass through kilometres of bedrock and usually less than 100 meters of soil, soil layers play a significant role in assigning the characteristics of the ground …

Consistent description of radiation damping in transient soil-structure interaction
Dynamic soil-structure interaction problems are characterized by an unbounded soil-domain and thus by radiation damping. This radiation damping arises due to wave propagation from the excited structure into the subsoil and may lead to a reduction of the structural response. A consistent description …

Dynamic Pile-Soil Interaction in Laterally Spreading Slopes
The collapse of buildings and infrastructure is an unfortunate consequence of major earthquakes (e.g., the 1964 Alaskan earthquake, the 1995 Kobe earthquake in Japan and the 2007 Pisco earthquake in Peru). Liquefaction-induced lateral spreading is known to be one cause of severe damage to deep …

An Investigation into the Seismic Resilience of Shallow Cut-and-Cover Tunnel in Urban Environments
Understanding the dynamic behaviour of shallow-buried tunnels in liquefiable soils is critical for the seismic design of underground infrastructure, particularly in congested urban areas, where interactions with adjacent surface structures further complicate this dynamic soil-structure interaction …

A performance-based design framework for base-isolated buildings against ground-borne vibration
… and the receiver (the building), allowing interaction between the different parts of the complex system with the main focus on the vibration and re-radiated noise levels in the building. Although numerical modelling may be necessary for absolute predictions, it is computationally expensive …

Multi-Hazard Modelling of Dual Row Retaining Walls
… with protecting coastal populations and infrastructure against more severe multi-hazard events. Whilst the protective measures must be robust, their deployment over long stretches of coastline necessitates an economical and environmentally friendly design. The dual row retaining wall concept, …
