Abstract
An approach to analyse structural vibration considering structure-
soil-structure interaction and nonlinearities is presented.
The structures are described by finite elements and the subsoil
by boundary elements in the Laplace domain. Nonlinearities,
e.g. pounding between buildings during earthquakes, will be
taken into account by alternatively performing the calculations
in the Laplace domain and time domain. Investigations show
that a realistic vibration response of buildings can not be deducted
from analysis without consideration of the structure-soil-structure
interaction.
