Subsoil Interventions Effect on Structural Seismic Response. Part II: Parametric Investigation
In the present article the effect of subsoil interventions on the response of soil-structure systems under strong earthquake shaking is studied. Several idealized configurations of commonly applied as well as innovative intervention techniques are examined, referring to increased or reduced stiffness of the initial subsoil conditions of the subsoil-foundation-structure system. Numerical analysis utilizing validated simulation procedures covers a large spectrum of structures and soil conditions. A parametric investigation of several key factors is also conducted. A comparative evaluation of the results in time and frequency domain is aiming in generalizing the conclusions to several earthquake and soil-structure combinations. Obtained results reveal a rather detrimental effect of the stiffness-increasing methods, whereas techniques related to modification of oscillation dynamic properties with flexible subsoil intervention schemes, present promising alternatives for an efficient mitigation of structural response to strong earthquakes.
