The numerical solution of large scale dynamic soil-structure interaction problems. KU Leuven
It is common practice in civil engineering to use computational models in order to understand and predict the behaviour of a wide variety of structural systems. The dynamic interaction between structures and the soil often plays a crucial role and should be accounted for in numerical models, for example for the assessment of damage to structures caused by earthquakes, the evaluation of annoyance in buildings due to vibrations originating from ...
