 Abstract

Presented here is the numerical investigation on seismic soil-structure interaction applying features of a rather non-conventional earthquake design. The examination focuses on the Groningen site conditions which lately experienced an induced-type of earthquake. A unique situation calls for a suitable seismic design for both existing and new buildings. Instead of adopting the conventional capacity design, the current paper explores a novel dynamic approach which gains traction within the research community. For validation and veri?cation purposes, the thesis invokes the scientifc literature findings of situations which resemble to the Groningen circumstances.
