Abstract

Free response of axisymmetric shells resting on flexible foundation in their asymmetric modes is studied using Finite Elements based on harmonic formulation. Influence of various parameters, such as subgrade modulus, proximity of boundary, density ratio, shear wave velocity, embedment of structure and depth of flexible foundation., on free response is studied. Axisymmetric interface element with harmonic functions is developed and introduced between the raft slab and foundation media.
