Summary: | Recent achievement of research on soil-structure interaction (SSI) is reviewed, with a main focus on the numerical analysis. The review is based on the continuum mechanics theory and the use of high-performance computing (HPC) and clarifies the characteristics of a wide range of treatment of SSI from a simplified model to a high fidelity model. Emphasized is that all the treatment can be regarded as the result of the mathematical approximations in solving a physical continuum mechanics problem of a soil-structure system. The use of HPC is inevitable if we need to obtain a solution of higher accuracy and finer resolution. An example of using HPC for the analysis of SSI is presented. |
