<p>The present paper deals with the influence of soil non-linearity, on the soil-foundation-structure interaction phenomena. Numerical simulations are carried out so as to reveal the beneficial or unfavourable effects of the non-linear SSI on the assessing ...

<p>When an earthquake occurs, the surrounding soil and the structural elements can exhibit non-linear behaviour. In common practice, only non-linear behaviour of structural elements is evaluated. But, actually, the soil reaches the limit of its elastic behaviour ...
