The spatial variation of seismic ground motions denotes the differences in the seismic time
histories at various locations on the ground surface. This text focuses on the spatial …

A numerical model was developed to simulate the response of two instrumented, centrifuge
model tests on soft clay and to investigate the factors that affect the seismic ground …

Earthquake strong motion recordings from 29 sites with instrumented structures and free-
field accelerographs are used to evaluate variations between foundation-level and free-field …

An investigation is presented of the collapse of a 630 m segment (Fukae section) of the
elevated Hanshin Expressway during the 1995 Kobe earthquake. The earthquake has, from …

Earthquakes in regions underlain by soft clay have amply demonstrated the detrimental
effects of soil–structure interaction (SSI) in such settings. This paper describes a new three …

This paper explores the influence of Structure-Soil-Structure Interaction (SSSI) between
multiple buildings in a three-dimensional arrangement under seismic excitation. A …

This paper presents a three-dimensional non-linear finite element (FE) approach to analyse
the dynamic soil-structure interaction (SSI) phenomena observed at the Lotung Large-Scale …

Kinematic soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects cause foundation-level motions to deviate
from free-field motions. Simplified procedures to account for kinematic SSI effects are …

Substructure method is widely used to evaluate the seismic performance of caisson
foundations supporting bridge piers subjected to strong ground motions, mainly because of …

It is well recognised that the dynamic interaction between structure, foundation and
supporting soil can affect significantly the seismic behaviour of buildings. Among other …
