Performance evaluation of a nonlinear Winkler-based shallow foundation model using centrifuge test results.

When a structure supported on shallow foundations is subjected to inertial loading due to earthquake motions, the foundation may undergo sliding, settling and rocking movements. Even if the capacity of the foundation is mobilized, the soil?foundation interface may dissipate significant amounts of vi...
