Seismic response of dam with soil‐structure interaction
An analytical solution to the response of a long trapezoidal‐section dam on a foundation consisting of an elastic half‐space and subjected to simulated earthquake morion is developed. An optimum seismic design is achieved when the cross section of the dam is triangular. The effect of soil structure interaction is to lower the strain occurring in the dam.
