Rocking Response of a Surface-Supported Strip Foundation Under a Harmonic Swaying Force
This paper presents an accurate analytical method to obtain the rocking impedance function of a surface-supported strip foundation.The Greens functions of the elastic half-space under concentrated or uniform loads with infinite length are derived and an elaborate integration method is used to calculate the multi-value improper integral.The interface between the foundation and the supporting medium is divided into a number of strip units.The rocking impedance function is solved by adding the moments in every strip, based on the fact that the vertical displacement of each unit can be uniquely determined by the rotation amplitude of the rigid foundation.Excellent convergence has been observed.Comparing the numerical results to those obtained by the thin layer method, good agreements are achieved.Finally, the effect of the Poissons ratio on the rocking impedance function of the strip foundation is discussed in detail.
