Dynamic interaction between two 3D rigid surface foundations subjected to oblique seismic waves by Salah Messioud

“…By discretizing the soil–foundation interface into quadrilateral constant elements, these equations are transformed into algebraic form, simplifying the force–displacement relationship within the discretized domain into a system of linear equations. This approach was applied to assess the impact of soil–structure interaction on the seismic response of two foundations, using the interaction coefficients proposed by Dobry and Gazetas in 1988. …”

Elastomere Fasern auf Polyurethanbasis by H. Rinke

“…Further development of these discoveries resulted in elastomers which are directly produced in polar solvents, and which have an essentially linear structure. In these elastomers the urea bridges Unking the soft, long-chain glycol blocks represent the actual crosslinking principle, and this by means of interaction between neighbouring CO- and NH-groups (hydrogen bonds!). …”
