Tranfer function amplitude minimization for structures with tuned mass dampers considering soil-structure interaction

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2019
The optimum tuned mass damper (TMD) parameters rely on the superstructure's natural frequency, which, in turn, depends on the soil condition under the structure. Thus, the consideration of soil conditions in determination of the optimum TMD parameters is

The Structure of Soil

2004
The importance and effect of soil structure is outlined in two applications. The first describes the influence of stress history on the consolidation and strength of very soft soils, while the second relates microbial activity to soil structure.

Implementation of a soil-structure interface constitutive model for application in geo-structures

Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2019
In this paper, an implementation of an advanced two-surface plasticity interface constitutive model in a general-purpose finite element code ABAQUS for application in soil-structure interaction problems under static and dynamic loading conditions is ...

Long-term effects of conventional and reduced tillage on soil structure, soil ecological and soil hydraulic properties

Geoderma, 2018
There is a long-lasting debate about the effects of tillage practices on soil structure and structure-mediated ecosystem properties like hydraulic conductivity and crop productivity.

Seismic Soil-structure Interaction: A State-of-the-Art Review

Structures, 2018
The process of soil response influencing motion of the structure and vice-versa is termed as soil-structure interaction (SSI). SSI has been traditionally considered to be beneficial to seismic response of a structure.

Soil Structure, Soil Water and Drought

2011
As much as 40% of the variation in crop yields may be attributed to soil physical conditions. These are partly inherited from the parent material but others are intrinsic to the soil itself – especially the fine-granular structure that distinguishes chernozem everywhere and determines its exceptional fertility, and which is created by grass roots ...
