Abstract: In this study, the response and behavior of machine foundations resting on dry and saturated sand was investigated experimentally. In order to investigate the response of soil and footing to steady state dynamic loading, a physical model was manufactured to simulate steady state harmonic load at different operating frequencies. Total of 84 physical models were performed. The footing parameters are related to the size of the rectangular footing and depth of embedment. Two sizes of rectangular steel model footing were tested at the surface and at 50 mm depth below model surface. Meanwhile the investigated parameters of the soil condition include dry and saturated sand for two relative densities 30% and 80%. The response of the footing was elaborated by measuring the amplitude of displacement by the vibration meter. The response of the soil to dynamic loading includes measuring the stresses inside the soil using piezoelectric sensors as well as measuring the excess pore water pressure using pore water pressu...

TL;DR: In this paper, the dynamic behavior of massive elastic blocks bonded to an infinite soil medium (halfspace), and subjected to horizontal and vertical transient loads, is explored, where the blocks and, in some cases, a small portion of the underlying soil are modeled by plane strain finite elements, whereas the remaining part of the halfspace is treated by a time domain boundary element method.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new embedded connection for a CFT column anchored into a reinforced concrete foundation is proposed, which is fully capable of transferring combined bending and axial loads and has sufficient deformability to sustain multiple inelastic deformation cycles under extreme loading.
