Abstract

Based on viscous-spring artificial boundary of time domain and the corresponding wave input method, the dynamic time history of fault fracture zone containing saturated soil is studied when SV waves are imported vertically into it. The change of saturated soil thickness, angle and width of the fault has influence on the site seismic response, and the influence is analyzed and discussed. Studies show that the peak value of the fault’s surface displacement decreases slightly when the fault has a dip; and the influence of the width of fault containing saturated soil on seismic response of the site is small.
