A review on interaction behaviour of structure-foundation-soil system
نویسنده
چکیده
Soil-structure interaction is interdisciplinary field which involves structural and geotechnical engineering. In the conventional non-interaction analysis of building frame structural designer assumed that columns are resting on unyielding support. Similarly, in foundation design, foundation settlements are calculated without considering the influence of the structural stiffness. Although, interaction effect is ignored to simplify the mathematical model but neglecting the interaction between soils and structures may result in a design that is either unnecessarily costly or unsafe. A more rational solution of soil-structure interaction problem can be achieved with computational validity and accuracy by appropriate analysis. The present study makes an attempt to study the possible alternative solutions proposed by various researchers to evaluate the effect of soilstructure interaction from time to time.

Composite piled raft foundation with intermediate cushion in layered soil under seismic forces
In order to mobilize shallow soil to participate in the interaction of piled raft foundation sufficiently, the concept of piled raft has been modified to new type of foundation named composite piled raft. In the system of composite piled raft, the short piles made of flexible materials is used to strengthen the shallow soft soil, while the long piles made of relatively rigid materials is used t...
متن کاملThe effect of earthquake frequency content and soil structure interaction on the seismic behavior of concrete gravity dam-foundation-reservoir system
The effect of frequency content on the dynamic response of concrete gravity dams is investigated in this paper. Dams are one of the most complex structures to handle when there is dynamic analysis involved. One of the influential parameters on these structureschr('39') seismic response is the frequency content of the earthquakes. An index to represent frequency content, which represents frequen...
متن کاملEvaluation of Seismic Behavior of Steel Moment Resisting Frames Considering Nonlinear Soil-structure Interaction
In structural analysis, the base of structures is usually assumed to be completely rigid. However, the combination of foundation and the subsurface soil, makes in fact a flexible-base for the soil-structure system. It is well-known that the structural responses can be significantly affected by incorporating the Soil-structure Interaction (SSI) effects. The aim of the present study is to provide...

This paper aims to study the influence of soil-structure interaction on plastic energy demand spectra directly derived from the energy-balance equations of soil-shallow-foundation structure with respect to an ensemble of far-field strong ground motions obtained from Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research (PEER) database and recorded on alluvium soil. The superstructure is modeled as a single-d...
متن کاملBase Level Evaluation in Buildings with Different Foundation Levels by Soil-foundation-structure Interaction
The base level is among the effective parameters in determining the seismic force on a structure, if the equivalent-static method is used for analyzing a structure. It is obvious that the base level is located on foundation in buildings in which foundation is built in a single level and there is not any interaction between the structure's walls and the soil; however, in some buildings which hav...
متن کاملAnalyzing the Effects of Soil-Structure Interactions on the Static Response of Onshore Wind Turbine Foundations Using Finite Element Method
The use of wind turbines to generate electricity has increased in recent years. One of the most important parts of a wind turbine is the foundation, which should be designed accurately because it is influenced by difference forces. Soil cannot carry tension stress; thus, when a wind turbine foundation is applied eccentricity forces, a gap appears between the soil and foundation. The gap will ha...
