Based on scheme of Dalian gulf cross-sea bridge, in this paper, a 3-dimensional FE model for Self-anchored cable-stayed suspension bridge is established with finite element program and pile-soil-structure interaction is simulated by use of the equivalent embed fixation model. Based on the FE model, model analysis is carried out and the effects of pile-soil-structure interaction on dynamic behavior of long-span self-anchored cable-stayed suspension bridge are specially studied. The seismic response analysis result considering that pile-soil-structure interaction was compared with that of without considering such interaction. The analysis result show that interaction extend the nature period of structure, has the greatest impact to the first vibration mode; meanwhile, enlarged longitudinal displacement and moment of stiffening beam in middle of main span, longitudinal displacement on top of tower and axial force at bottom, but reduced the moment of tower at bottom. The research results provide some theoretical foundation to composite structure system.

Calculation Results

As an effective way of passive damping, isolation technology has been widely used in all types of building structures. Currently, for its theoretical analysis, it usually follows the rigid foundation assumption and ignores soil-structure interaction, which results in calculation results distortion in conducting seismic response analysis. In this paper, three-dimensional finite element method is used to establish finite element analysis model of large chassis single-tower base isolation structure which considers and do not consider soil-structure interaction. The calculation results show that: after considering soil-structure interaction, the dynamic characteristics of the isolation structure, and seismic response are subject to varying degrees of impact.

The objective of the present paper represents the optimization of the excavation dimensions within underpinning works. Stress variations within the structural walls of an existing masonry church have been observed and interpreted for different lengths of the excavation section, in order to optimize the section length and to not exceed the allowable deformation limits. In this respect, nonlinear static analyzes using finite element program ANSYS Workbench have been performed, considering soil-structure interaction, for limited excavations that take place underneath the existing stone masonry foundation, laying on a multi-layered soil.

This paper establishes three models using ANSYS, which were timber structure of Guangyue Tower, timber structure-tower base and timber structure-tower base-foundation. The first 3 natural frequencies of timber structure respectively were 0.8524Hz、1.1273 Hz and 1.7426 Hz through modal analysis, which were compared with calculations from code. Lanzhou Wave was chosen to analyze the seismic response of Guangyue Tower, and the amplitudes were adjusted to 55gal and 310gal respectively according to the frequent earthquake and rare earthquake, which were inputted to the above models. As can be seen from the calculations, the maximum displacements of the three models were in the top nodes, and tower base had a greater impact on vibration of timber structure, which could not be ignored in seismic response analysis; considering soil-structure interaction in seismic response analysis could better reflect the actual situation of Guangyue Tower.

Seismic Site Response

Seismic site response of sandy soils and seismic soil–structure interaction are investigated using an electrohydraulic earthquake simulator mounted on a centrifuge container at an 80g field. The results of testing uniform and layered loose to medium-dense sand models subjected to 13 simulated earthquakes on the centrifuge are presented. The variation of shear modulus and damping ratio with shear strain amplitude and confining pressure was evaluated and their effects on site response were assessed. The evaluated shear modulus and damping ratio agreed reasonably with laboratory tests and empirical relationships. Site response analysis using the measured shear wave velocity and estimated modulus reduction and damping ratio as input parameters produced good agreement with the measured site response. The effect of soil–structure interaction for structures situated on dry sand is also investigated. These tests have revealed many important insights with regard to the characteristics of seismic site response and seismic soil–structure behaviour. The tests showed that the seismic response of soil deposits, input motions, and overall behaviour of the structure are affected by soil stratification. The results showed that the seismic kinematic soil–structure interaction is not very significant for structures situated on loose sand.
