13 Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction Analysis A Consultant s Disclaimer! Accuracy of FLAC Analysis Results: The results of FLAC should be used as a guide in estimating the overall performance of the embankmentwharf system. In evaluating the FLAC results, one should keep in mind the program limitations, modeling assumptions and other uncertainties inherent in any nonlinear deformation analysis and in estimation of ground motion time histories.
14 Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction Analysis What is a Reasonable Approach for the Practitioner? A simplified geotechnical approach, with some built-in conservatism, would be reasonable to provide structural engineers with the necessary design Input.
15 Soil-Pile-Structure Interaction Container Wharf rock fill inertial interaction displacement demand from structural analysis kinematic Loading - lateral spread displacement demand soft clay or liquefaction zone potential plastic hinge locations The two loading conditions induce maximum moments in separated upper and lower regions of pile The two loading conditions also tend to induce maximum moments at different times during the earthquake
16 SSI - Inertial Loading - Three Dimensional Effects Center of Rigidity (CR) e=49 ft Seismic Piles Center of Mass (CM) Center of Mass (CM) and Center of Rigidity (CR) do not coincide Two orthogonal earthquake components Non-symmetrical in the longitudinal direction Non-seismic Piles
17 SSI-Kinematic Interaction Analysis Simplified Newmark Time History Analyses Widely Used to Evaluate Seismic Stability of Slopes Displacement Based Performance Criteria Assumes a Rigid Sliding Block on Critical Failure Surface Yield Acceleration from Stability Analysis Acceleration-Time History at Base of Sliding Block is Used

24 Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction Evaluation Summary and Conclusions Use of advanced computer program for dynamic SSI problem in the industry is limited Simplified approaches, supported by complex analyses, provide reasonable solutions to dynamic SSI problems Collaboration between geotechnical and structural engineers is critical for improving the use of computer programs in the industry Collaboration in the industry as well as academia (research) is vital Structural based computer programs, with geotechnical capabilities, appear to be more viable for dynamic SSI problems
