Modeling the soil–structure interaction (SSI) in seismic design involves use of soil response curves for single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) structures; however, real structures have multiple degrees freedom (MDOF). In this study, shaking-table-derived p-y SDOF and MDOF superstructures were compared using numerical analysis. It was found that an structure experienced less displacement than same wei...

Abstract: point of view. In this study, a shaking-table was used for concentrating a manganese ore sample from the Ghasem Abadarea in Kerman, Iran. Experiments were designed by using LThe influence of each variable and their interactions on the operation of the device was studied. The variables underinvestigation were: table slope, table frequency, water flowrate, feed rate, and particle size. ...

this paper presents the numerical analysis of seismic soil-pile-superstructure interaction in soft clay using free-field soil analysis and beam on winkler foundation approach. this model is developed to compute the nonlinear response of single piles under seismic loads, based on one-dimensional finite element formulation. the parameters of the proposed model are calibrated by fitting the experi...
