This paper presents the analysis of the dynamic response of a sedimentary valley subjected to incident plane waves. The sediment-filled valley is composed by a fluid layer over a soft soil deposit whose effect is of importance in the design of long span bridges with high piers. The method of analysis makes use of decomposing the problem into interior and exterior regions. In the exterior region, the scattered wave fields are constructed with two linearly independent sequences of Lamb’s singular solutions which satisfy the traction free conditions at ground surface and radiation conditions at infinity. For the interior regions, the wave fields for the fluid layer and soft soil deposit are expressed in terms of wave functions which satisfy the equation of motion. The continuity conditions at the interface of the media are satisfied in the least square sense. The effects of geometric topography, soil amplification and fluid layer under different types of incident harmonic plane waves are analyzed and discussed in detail.

Ground improvement technique by prefabricated vertical drain (PVD) in combination with vacuum preloading is widely used to facilitate consolidation process and reduce residual settlement. However, this technique seem hardly be estimated by both analytical method and numerical method because it has complex boundary conditions (such as vacuum pressure changing with time). Moreover, lateral displacements caused by this technique are also significant problem. Numerical modelling may be an effective design tool to estimate behavior of soft soil treated by this method, however it needs to have a proper calibration of input parameters. This paper introduces a matching scheme for selection of soil/drain properties in analytical solution and numerical modelling (axisymmetric and plane strain conditions) of a ground improvement project by using Prefabricated Vertical Drains (PVD) in combination with vacuum and surcharge preloading. In-situ monitoring data from a case history of a road construction project in Vietnam was adopted in the back-analysis. Analytical solution and axisymmetric analysis can approximate well the field data meanwhile the horizontal permeability need to be adjusted in plane strain scenario to achieve good agreement. In addition, the influence zone of the ground treatment was examined. The residual settlement was investigated to justify the long-term settlement in compliance with the design code. Moreover, the degree of consolidation of non-PVD sub-layers was also studied by means of two different approaches.

In this paper, a semi-analytical solution to the problem of a simply supported beam subjected to a moving sprung mass with initial velocity and constant acceleration or deceleration was presented, which serves as a benchmark for checking the performance of other numerical methods. Herein, a finite element modeling procedure was adopted to tackle the vehicle–bridge interaction, and the responses of the vehicle and bridge were computed by time integration schemes such as the Newmark average acceleration, HHT-[Formula: see text], and Wilson-[Formula: see text] methods. In comparison with the semi-analytical solution, the acceleration response of the beam solved by the Newmark average acceleration method shows spurious high-frequency oscillations caused by the finite element discretization. In contrast, the HHT-[Formula: see text] and Wilson-[Formula: see text] methods can dissipate these oscillations and show more accurate results. Moreover, we found that the dynamic responses of the beam and sprung mass were mainly determined by the initial velocity of the sprung mass, but not by the acceleration or deceleration.
