This study investigates the effect of soil-structure interaction (SSI) on the response of base-isolated buildings. The equations of motion are formulated in the frequency domain, assuming frequencyindependent soil stiffness and damping constants. An equivalent fixed-base system is developed that acc

An approach is formulated for the linear analysis of three-dimensional dynamic soil-structure interaction of asymmetric buildings in the time domain, in order to evaluate the seismic response behaviour of torsionally coupled buildings. The asymmetric building is idealized as a single-storey three-di
In the conventional design, buildings are generally considered to be fixed at their bases. In reality, flexibility of the supporting soil medium allows some movement of the foundation. This decreases the overall stiffness of the building frames resulting in a subsequent increase in the natural perio
