Abstract

A theoretical approach is developed and programmed to analyze the three-dimensional dynamic response of machines on foundations interacting with soil. Structures and soil are coupled by means of a substructure technique. The substructure behaviour of soil is treated for rigid and flexible foundation slabs of arbitrary shape by superposition of semianalytical solutions of viscoelastic halfspace field equations. The interaction between a single turbomachinery frame foundation and soil as well as the interaction through the underlying soil between adjacent block foundations are considered. The assumptions of perfectly smooth and perfectly welded contact at the interface between soil and bases bound the influence of shear stresses. The impact of foundation flexibility with respect to rotor vibrations is discussed. Experimental studies describe the measured sine sweep response and vibration modes of a small scale frame foundation and a rigid circular block foundation on compressed sand.
