Abstract:Various vibration phenomena of buildings occurred in recent earthquakes. Some of them were very complicated and might be caused by unknown structure-structure interactions through foundations and/or ground soil.
The aim of this research is to investigate such complicated structure-structure interaction by numerical simulation. After formulating the problem mathematically, we develop a simulation algorithm for linear elastic bodies that have distributional material constants. As for the discretization procedure… Show more
