Abstract: The influence of the foundation geometry on the antiplane impulse response of an embedded foundation is the topic. The foundations of a semicircular and a rectangular cross section are selected ...

Abstract: A rigid rectangular foundation, embedded at an arbitrary depth below the surface of an elastic half space is subjected to a plane, transient SH-wave. The Laplace and Kantorovich-Lebedev transforms ...

Abstract: The plane strain model of a rigid building foundation embedded below the surface of an elastic half space is treated. The foundation is assumed to be vibrating freely with arbitrary transient ...
