DOI: 10.1080/17486025.2024.2343355
Abstract: ABSTRACT Shear waves in underground longitudinal structures impose deformations that need to be accounted for in structural design. Simplified approaches for such structures typically consider the Winkler foundation model, assuming Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, which neglects… read more here.
