Soil-Structure Interaction in Transversely Isotropic Layered Media Subjected to Incident Plane SH Waves

The dynamic soil-structure interaction (SSI) for incident plane SH waves is analyzed for a two-dimensional (2D) model of a shear wall on a rigid foundation by using the indirect boundary element method (IBEM). The rigid foundation utilized in this study is embedded in transversely isotropic (TI) soi...
