  1. Soil-Structure Interaction ECIV 724A Fall 2004

  2. SSI – Problem Definition Earthquake Analysis Structures supported by rigid foundations Earthquakes=>Specified motion of base Rigid Base Analysis • Tall Buildings • Acceptable • Light & Flexible • Firm Foundations • Methods focus on modeling of structure • Displacements wrt fixed base • Finite Element Methods • Nuclear Power Plants • Wrong Assumption • Massive & Stiff • Soft Soils • Interaction with supporting soils becomes important

  3. Machine Foundation Seismic Excitation SSI – Problem Definition • Parameters • Local Soil Conditions • Peak Acceleration • Frequency Content of Motion • Proximity to Fault • Travel Path etc Inertial Interaction Inertial forces in structure are transmitted to flexible soil Kinematic Interaction Stiffer foundation cannot conform to the distortions of soil TOTAL=INERTIAL + KINEMATIC

  7. SSI Effects • Alter the Natural Frequency of the Structure • Add Damping • Through the Soil Interaction Effects • Traveling Wave Effects

  8. Methods of Analysis Objective: Given the earthquake ground motions that would occur on the surface of the ground in the absence of the structure (control or design motions), find the dynamic response of the structure.

  9. Methods of Analysis Methods Complete Idealized Direct MultiStep

  10. Complete Interaction Analysis High Degree of Complexity • Account for the variation of soil properties with depth. • Consider the material nonlinear behavior of the soil • Consider the 3-D nature of the problem • Consider the nature of the wave propagation which produced the ground motion • Consider possible interaction with adjacent structures.

  11. Idealized Interaction Analysis Idealization Horizontal Layers Simplified Wave Mechanisms etc

  12. Idealized Interaction Analysis Preliminary description of free field motion before any structure has been built • The definition of the motion itself • the control motion in terms of response spectra, acceleration records etc • The location of the control motion • free surface, soil-rock interface • The generation mechanism at the control point vertically or obliquely incident SH or SV waves, Rayleigh waves, etc.

  13. Idealized Analysis Idealized Interaction Analysis Tools: FEM, BEM, FDE, Analytical solutions • MultiStep Methods • Evaluation of Dynamic Response in Several Steps • SUPERPOSITION • Two-Step • Kinematic+Inertia Interaction • Three-Step • Rigid Foundations • Lumped Parameter Models • Substructure • Division to Subsystems • Equilibrium & Compatibility Direct Methods Evaluation of Dynamic Response in a Single Step True Nonlinear Solutions

  14. Finite Element Method (FEM) Governing Equation Solution Techniques • Modal Analysis • Direct Integration • Fourier Analysis - Complex Response

  15. FEM Solution Techniques Selection CriteriaCost and Feasibility Paramount ConsiderationAccuracy Differences - Handling of Damping - Ability to Handle High Frequency Components of Motion

  16. FEM - Modal Analysis • Damping is neglected during early stages • Actual displacements are damped • Damping is considered in arbitrary manner • Structural Dynamics: First few modes need to be evaluated (<20) • SSI: Acceleration response spectra over a large frequency range and large number of modes need to be considered (>150) • Not recommended for Direct SSI - Stiff Massive Structure Soft Soil • OK for Substructure

  17. FEM - Direct Integration • Time Marching Schemes Newmark’s Methods, WilsonJ Methods, Bathe and Wilson Cubic Inertia Method • Small Time Step for Accuracy • Stability and Convergence • Choice of Damping Matrix • Frequency Dependent Damping Ratio - filters out high frequency components • Proportional Damping • Good Choice if True Dynamic Nonlinear Analysis is feasible

  18. FEM - Complex Response • Fourier Transformation - Transfer Functions • Transfer Functions Independent of External Excitation • Control of Accuracy • Efficient • Only Linear or Pseudo non-linear analysis

  19. FEM - Geometric Modeling

  20. FEM Modeling Max Element Size Governed by Highest frequency which must be transmitted correctly within the element

  21. FEM Modeling of Infinite Space

  22. FEM Modeling of Infinite Space Modeling Introduces Artificial Boundaries that Reflect Waves

  23. FEM Modeling of Infinite Soil • Absorbing Boundaries • Viscous Boundary • Variable Depth Method • Damping proportional to Wave Velocities • Radiating Boundaries (Hyperelements) • Satisfy Boundary Conditions at Infinity • Eigenvalue Analysis • Frequency Domain Analysis

  24. SSI – FEM Methods • FEM • Advantages • Non-Linear Analysis • Well Established • Shortcomings • Finite Domains • Volume Discretizations

  25. Boundary Element Methods Governing Equation • Small Displacement Field • Homogeneous • Isotropic • Elastic

  26. Boundary Element Method

  27. Boundary Element Method

  28. BEM – Methods • BEM • Advantages • Infinite Media • Surface Discretization • Shortcomings • Non-symmetric matrices • Not Efficient for Nonlinear

  29. SSI Methods Combined BEM-FEM eliminate disadvantages of each method and retain advantages • Approach • FEM Approach • BEM Approach • Staggered Solutions

  33. At Every Time Step... Equilibrium of Forces at Interface BEM Solver FEM Solver External Excitation External Excitation Compatibility of Displacements at Interface FEM-BEM CouplingStaggered Solutions

  34. FEM-BEM CouplingAdvantages • Independent Solutions for BEM and FEM • Independent Time Step Selection • Smaller Systems of Equations • BEM System of Reduced Size • In the Absence of Incidence Displacement Field in Soil, BEM does not require Solution.
