This course consists of mathematical modeling of soil-structure interaction in earthquake engineering. Main content of the course includes the seismic response of structures built inside or on the surface of soils taking into account the dynamic effects of soils. In this course the soil-structure system will be considered as a whole and the theoretical background will be complemented with related practical applications. |
