Coupled Site and Soil-Structure Interaction Effects with Application to Seismic Risk Mitigation

  • Interdisciplinary approach including scientists from structural dynamics, geophysics seismological engineering
  • Multi scale approach from the source of the earthquake to the far and near field and also considering the structure
  • Beside theoretical results from sciences additional assessment of regional conditions and application of derived concept to local engineering practice
