Input ground-motion in free-field site response analysis
Hello there,
I am performing a free-field site response analysis.
Plaxis's Manual suggests to set a " Compliant base " for the bottom boundary and " Free-field " for the lateral boundaries.
Now, in my specific case i have an outcropping ground motion…

Dynamic Analysis Using Matched Response Spectra-PLAXIS 2D
Hi,
I need to perform earthquake analysis of a slope but in terms of dynamic forces, all I have is response spectra of matched time histories (see example below). I am wondering if I can use these spectra as an input in PLAXIS 2D for my analysis or…
Regarding shaking table test
I want to apply a harmonic acceleraction of 5m/s2 having a frequency of 20 Hz at the bottom of my model as a shaking table. how can i apply that.
Liquefaction Analysis on Plaxis
Hello,
Good afternoon.
I am working on my Master's dissertation with Liquefaction Analysis from Earthquake Loading and I have three questions about my modeling.
1) What should be the correct dynamic boundaries to use on this modeling? I am simulating…
