Re: 2D varying soil properties

First, generate a 2DRdF by interpolating 1D RdF simulations is not correct even if u assume orthotropic conditions. Simply u can not model/preserve the spatial structure following the horizontal direction with the approach that u proposed. Again, I advise you to start by 1D case to understand the ba...

Re: 2D varying soil properties

Hi Sebastian, It seems to me that you want to deal with soil variability by modeling soil properties as a random field. I think that the best way to start is by the simplest case, a 1D model. For example, one may assume that Vs varies linearly with depth. You can then replicate the same steps given ...

Wave train simulation using PFEM?

I've recently discovered the implementation of PFEM in OpenSees to deal with FSI problems. After reading the documentation and the related articles, I was wondering if it's possible to generate wave train through PFEM simulations in OpenSees.

Thanks in advance for your support
