• State-of-the-art– Frequency domain equivalent linear analysis
• SHAKE, DEEPSOIL
– Time domain nonlinear analysis• DEEPSOIL nonlinear, LS-DYNA
– Mostly 1D• Limitations
– Mostly developed for characterizing site effects– The 1D assumption
• Horizontal ground motion components are usually not uncorrelated• Not sufficient for high fidelity SSI analyses required for performance
assessment of NPPs (Jeremic, 2011)

Conclusions
• Good match for low soil strains but large differences at high soil strains (close to 1%)
• Peak strain values are underestimated in SHAKE, especially for intense motions– Effective shear strain ratio?
• Accelerations are underestimated in SHAKE– Large values of damping ratio?
• Implications for SSI analysis– Need to be cautious when large strains are expected– 1D analysis insufficient (Jeremic, 2011)– Materials not suitable for full SSI analyses

Conclusions
• High frequency ‘noise’ in time-domain analysis results– Piecewise nonlinearity (LS DYNA only)– Internal wave reflections due to impedance changes– Joyner and Chen (1974)– Cautious site layering, or filtering of the response
• SHAKE response for pulse motions– Convergence issues– Smaller value of effective shear strain ratio needs to be used
