Abstract
In this paper, the effects of the asynchronous ground motion on
frequency contents and amplitudes of hydrodynamic pressures
are investigated considering dam-reservoir-foundation
interaction. The behaviour of the dam, the reservoir and the
foundation is expressed in terms of the displacements
(Lagrangian approach) in the formulations obtained using finite
element method. Hydrodynamic pressures are calculated for
various earthquake wave velocities. It is observed that
asynchronous ground motion affects the frequency contents of
hydrodynamic pressures slightly. However, the amplitudes of
the hydrodynamic pressures decrease considerably when
asynchronous ground motion is taken into account.
