An efficient and modular numerical prediction model is presented to predict vibrations and re-radiated noise in buildings due to metro trains. The approach comprises of three weakly coupled problems: the dynamic vehicle-track-tunnel-soil interaction problem, the dynamic soil-structure interaction problem and the calculation of the acoustic response inside the rooms. The three-dimensional dynami...

In existing buildings, it may be necessary to repair, adapt, renew, relocate or demolish buildings and building parts that have come the end of their usage period due spatial, functional, technical economic obsolescence. After applications extend service life is great importance analyze dynamic behavior under soil-structure interaction earthquake loads obtain accurate results. this study, seism...

regarding the importance of the prevention of hazards and adverse environmental impacts in industrial and populated areas such as southern parts of tehran city, the response of impulsive period ground-supported tanks were assessed. having considered the study area's soil properties, the response of ground-supported tanks was modelled. regarding the soil properties of southern parts of tehran, t...

this paper presents the numerical analysis of seismic soil-pile-superstructure interaction in soft clay using free-field soil analysis and beam on winkler foundation approach. this model is developed to compute the nonlinear response of single piles under seismic loads, based on one-dimensional finite element formulation. the parameters of the proposed model are calibrated by fitting the experi...

Braudeau, Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, Pédologie Hydrostructurale, 32 Avenue Henri Varagnat, 93140 Bondy, France e-mail: [email protected] Current soil water models do not take into account the internal organization of the soil medium and consequently ignore the physical interaction between the water film at the surface of solids that form the soil st...

Bridges built in ice-covered water regions are mostly complex marine environments, they not only need to withstand strong wind but also resist the impact of drift ice. However, at present, there is a lack vehicle–bridge coupling vibration analysis and driving safety assessment under combined ice wind. Therefore, this study constructs complete framework ice–wind–vehicle–bridge interaction invest...
