Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering and Soil–Structure Interaction
Abstract In earthquake engineering, geotechnics plays a prime part. To begin with the knowledge of soil mechanics for areas related to seismic history is essential. The understanding of basic dynamics as given in earlier chapters is a must. It is vital that shaking of the soft ground in earthquaks must have historical records. The rupture of fault as a cause of earthquake must be treated as a part of seismological knowledge. Earthquake waves are as P- and S-waves, love wave and Rayleigh wave. The engineer must know the response of elastic ground to surface excitation, seismic wave energy and the wave transmission and reflection at interface. To assess the behaviour of particularly heavy structures in earthquakes, the soil must be related to the overall performance of structures. The following are clearly essential to perform the soil–structure interaction.
