Seismic response and interaction of complex soil retaining systems

Publication year: 2012 Source: Computers and Geotechnics, Volume 39, January 2012, Pages 17-26 S. Kontoe, L. Zdravkovic, C.O. Menkiti, D.M. Potts This paper examines the seismic response of a large and complex system comprising a Lock chamber and three neighbouring water saving basins (WSBs). The developed two-dimensional plane strain finite element model included the entire system in order to explore the interaction of the various structures.
