Soil-Structure Interaction

Soil-Structure Interaction

Large civ­il struc­tures such as con­crete dams, nu­clear pow­er plants, high-rise build­ings and bridges are mas­sive enough that their vi­bra­tion due to earth­quake ex­ci­ta­tion af­fects the mo­tion of the soil or rock sup­port­ing them,which in turn fur­ther af­fects the mo­tion of the struc­ture it­self. This in­ter­ac­tion be­tween the struc­ture and the soil needs to be mod­eled ac­cu­rate­ly in or­der to de­sign earth­quake re­sis­tant struc­tures and to cor­rect­ly eval­u­ate the earth­quake safe­ty of ex­ist­ing struc­tures.
