Seismic soil-structure interaction: beneficial or detrimental?
George Mylonakis,George Gazetas +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of soil-structure interaction (SSI) in the seismic response of structures is reexplored using recorded motions and theoretical considerations, and it is shown that an increase in the fundamental natural period of a moderately flexible structure due to SSI may have a detrimental effect on the imposed seismic demand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Footings under seismic loading: Analysis and design issues with emphasis on bridge foundations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide state-of-the-art information on the following aspects of seismic analysis and design of spread footings supporting bridge piers: (1) obtaining the dynamic stiffness (springs and dashpots) of the foundation; (2) computing the kinematic response; determining the conditions under which foundation compliance must be incorporated in dynamic structural analysis; assessing the importance of properly modeling the effect of embedment; elucidating the conditions in which the effects of radiation damping is significant.

Kinematic pile bending during earthquakes: analysis and field measurements
TL;DR: The passage of seismic waves through the soil surrounding a pile imposes lateral displacements and curvatures on the pile, thereby generating "kinematic" bending moments even in the absence of a su...

Soil-pile-bridge seismic interaction : Kinematic and inertial effects. Part I: Soft soil
TL;DR: In this article, a substructuring method has been implemented for the seismic analysis of bridge piers founded on vertical piles and pile groups in multi-layered soil, which reproduces semi-analytically both the kinematic and inertial soil-structure interaction, in a simple realistic way.
