Abstract
The dynamic response of a series of surface foundations including through-the-soil interaction is studied. The subgrade medium is a linear elastic half-space modelled by a 3-D BEM while the foundations are interconnected by a super-structure for which a standard FEM discretization is used. The strong through-the-soil coupling of adjacent foundations and the effect of the overlaying structure become apparent on the basis of the obtained results.
