Piled foundation dynamics: Considering inertial and underground railway excitation
Understanding the fundamental dynamics of piled foundations is important for practitioners, as ground-borne vibration can result in adverse disturbances, particularly in urban areas. Through the development of computationally efficient models, this dissertation examines the vibration of piles due …

A performance-based design framework for base-isolated buildings against ground-borne vibration
… such a context, different configurations of the foundation and the building may be investigated in order to minimise vibration levels. A widespread measure of mitigation is base-isolation: the building is mounted on an isolation system composed of either rubber bearings or steel springs. The goal …
