Hydrodynamic and Foundation Interaction Effects in Dynamics of Intake Towers: Frequency Response Functions
Publication: Journal of Structural Engineering
Volume 115, Issue 6
Abstract
The linear responses of idealized intake‐outlet towers to harmonic ground motion are presented for a range of parameters characterizing the tower geometry, surrounding and inside water, and foundation‐soil system. Based on these frequency response functions, the effects of tower‐water interaction and tower‐foundation‐soil interaction on the response of towers are identified and shown to be significant in many cases.
