soil-building-interaction
i am investigating about how to do an analysis of a building considering the soil-structure interaction, and i have problems to define the impedance function, because i can't find the expressions for the stiffness and dampings of the springs in the model.
check out our whitepaper library.
the stiffness will of the soil springs, including any building effects should come from the geotech.
if you need more information concerning the complexity of this type of analysis you should refer to shamshar prakash's soil-structure interaction. it may be found on the asce website.
