A review of boundary element methods for the numerical solution of elastodynamic
problems covering the period 1986-1996 is presented. It is a continuation of a review article …

This book provides simple physical models to represent the unbounded soil in time and
frequency domain analysis. They do not supplant the more generally applicable rigorous …

Soil–structure interaction is an interdisciplinary field of endeavor which lies at the
intersection of soil and structural mechanics, soil and structural dynamics, earthquake …

This multi-contributor book provides comprehensive coverage of earthquake engineering
problems, an overview of traditional methods, and the scientific background on recent …

Recent improvements in seismological source modeling, analysis of travel path effects, and
characterization of local site effects on strong shaking have led to significant advances in …

Structural analysis is usually carried out by a strength-of-materials approach that allows
complex 3-D structures to be modelled adequately for design needs in a single dimension …

The large size embedded foundation is widely used in the engineering, but the finite
thickness of soil layer underlying this foundation is usually neglected in design, which leads …

The two‐dimensional response of a viscoelastic half‐space containing a buried, unlined,
infinitely long cylindrical cavity of circular cross‐section subjected to harmonic plane SH, P …

This paper attempts to develop a novel hybrid method to address the dynamic impedance
functions of a rigid strip-foundation resting on a non-homogeneous poroelastic soil profile …

The investigation reported in the paper is an attempt to assess the relevance of soil-structure
interaction (SSI) effects on the dynamic response of bridge piers responding in the inelastic …
