Cover Story: In this study, one-dimensional free-field analyses were performed before the three-dimensional silo dynamic analyses were subjected to earthquake loadings. Closed-form solutions in the frequency domain are available for one-dimensional shear wave propagation in a linearly viscous elastic system subjected to base accelerations. Numerical finite element solutions in the time domain analysis can be directly compared to such closed-form solutions in the free fields, including the lateral boundary, allowing us to assess the accuracy of numerical solutions. Five different computer programs (SHAKE91, DEEPSOIL, SRAP-1D, QUAD-4M, SMAP-3D) are utilized for the comparative studies between frequency and time domain analyses. View this paper
