Numerical Study on the Seismic Response of Structure with Consideration of the Behavior of Base Mat Uplift

The foundation might be separated from the supporting soil if the earthquake is big enough, which is known as base mat uplift. This paper proposed a simplified calculation model in which spring element is adopted to simulate the interaction between soil and structure. The load-deformation curve (F-D...
