A Fully Coupled Analysis Procedure for Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction

Publication: Geotechnical Engineering for Transportation Projects

Abstract

In order to capture all significant aspects in complex dynamic soil-structure interaction problems, nonlinear behavior of soil skeleton, pore water, and embedded structure should be modeled in a coupled manner. One such fully coupled procedure is presented in this paper to study the dynamic soil-structure interactions during seismic events. This procedure is implemented into a 2-dimensional finite element computer code, DYSAC2, and predictions made by DYSAC2 are validated using centrifuge test results. Reasonable comparisons are obtained between the DYSAC2 predictions and centrifuge tests results.
