Course Details
• Fundamentals of Soil Mechanics: An introduction to soil properties, behavior, and classification, including primary and secondary soil mechanics principles.
• Soil-Structure Interaction: Understanding the interaction between soil and structural elements, including the effects of loads, deformations, and soil-structure compatibility.
• Advanced Constitutive Models: Exploration of advanced constitutive models for soil behavior, including elastic-plastic models, critical state models, and bounding surface models.
• Dynamic Soil-Structure Analysis: Techniques for dynamic soil-structure analysis, including time-history techniques, spectral analysis, and response spectrum analysis.
• Dynamic Soil Properties and Testing: Measurement and interpretation of dynamic soil properties, including shear modulus, damping ratio, and small-strain behavior.
• Dynamic Soil-Foundation-Structure Interaction: Analysis of dynamic soil-foundation-structure interaction, including the effects of soil-foundation support, kinematic interaction, and dynamic soil-foundation coupling.
• Earthquake Engineering and Seismic Design: Principles of earthquake engineering and seismic design, including earthquake hazard assessment, ground motion selection, and seismic design criteria.
• Numerical Modeling in Dynamic Soil Mechanics: Application of numerical modeling techniques in dynamic soil mechanics, including finite element analysis, boundary element analysis, and discrete element analysis.
• Case Studies in Dynamic Soil Mechanics: Analysis and interpretation of real-world case studies in dynamic soil mechanics, including the impact of dynamic soil-structure behavior on building performance and resilience.
