Consideration of Non-Uniform Embedment on the Response of Nuclear Plant Structures

Aug 8, 2019

The effects of foundation embedment on the seismic response of structures have long been recognized in the analysis and design of nuclear power plant (NPP) structures. Some design standards allow simple methods to address the embedment effects. However, these methods...

Application of Seismic Ground Motion Incoherency Effects in SASSI on Soil Sites with Multiple Foundations

Aug 8, 2019

Inclusion of incoherency effects in soil-structure interaction (SSI) analysis provides a more realistic determination of earthquake induced building structural responses than those obtained considering coherent ground motion. Separately, industry demand for...
