The probabilistic seismic assessment of aged concrete arch bridges: The role of soil-structure interaction
Farshad Homaei,Mahdi Yazdani +1 more
TL;DR: Results show that ignoring the SSI effect leads to an overestimation of bridge capacity as well as the confidence level of satisfying the safety state, and the return period of bridge failure increases when a rigid-base model is employed.

The coupling of the finite element method and boundary solution procedures
TL;DR: The finite element method is now recognized as a general approximation process which is applicable to a variety of engineering problems and boundary solution procedures have been introduced as an independent alternative which at times is more economical and possesses certain merits as mentioned in this paper.
