On surface wave fields arising in soil-structure interaction problems
Özet
The paper aims at generalization of the specialized formulation, originally developed for the surface wave fields induced by prescribed surface stresses. We extend this formulation to soil-structure interaction problems with unknown contact stresses and internal sources. The problem for an internal source embedded in an elastic half-plane is reduced to that for prescribed surface stresses by considering the point source solution for an unbounded medium. In this case the sub-problems corresponding to normal and tangential stresses assume a separate treatment. Then, we analyze interaction of an elastic half-plane with a one degree of freedom mass-spring system. The focus is on a near-resonant regime investigated by a perturbation technique.
