Investigation the accuracy of FEMA-440 procedure to analyze soil-structure systems

A common analysis method of soil-structure systems in seismic design procedures such as FEMA-440 is to replace the entire soil-structure system by a fixed-base oscillator with an equivalent fundamental period and damping ratio to consider inertial effect of soil-structure interaction. It is generall...
