Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a brief summary on the research, which was mainly related to the applications of infinite elements to dynamic soil-structure interaction problems and carried out by the author and his coworkers during the last decade. Owing to the complex and complicated nature of practical engineering problems, infinite elements often need to be coupled with finite elements to deal with such problems. This has enabled the combination of infinite elements and finite elements to be used to successfully solve many practical problems in various engineering fields, such as earthquake engineering, structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, dam engineering and so forth. Several examples are given in this paper to show the applications of infinite elements to dynamic soil-structure interaction problems in engineering practice.
