Soil Structure Interaction nad Shear Wall

[samran]

Dear Sir


Would you please let me know:

1. It it possible to model SSI via simplified Cone Model, provided by Wolf, as some elements with rocking and sway spring and dampers at the base of the frame or building?

2. Does Seismostruct have the capability of modeling RC frame with Shear Wall?

3. is it possible to conduct Modal Pushover analysis?

4. Can we Link it to Matlab for some automated analyses?

Thak you very much in advance!

Regards

Dear Samran,

1) We do not know Wolf's model
2) Yes, of course (have you not read the Help System?)
3) Of course again (have you not run the program?)
4) No

Thank you very much for your answeres,

For the wolf's SSI model , I meant if it is possible to add some elements with spesified damper and spring at the base of frame or bulding as a felexible foundation?

Thank you in advance

Kind regards
