Abstract:

The transient dynamic response of saturated soil under suddenly applied point loading was studied. The behavior of saturated soil was governed by Biot's consolidation theory. The solutions for transform domain were obtained by using Laplace-Hankel integral transforms. The solutions for time domain can be evaluated by the numerical inverse Laplace-Hankel transforms. The selected numerical solutions of displacements and stresses were presented. Comparisons with the existing closed-form solutions for elastic half space were presented to confirm the accuracy of the present solutions.

Key words: transient solution, Biot consolidation equation, Laplace-Hankel transforms, numerical integration
