Purpose of Presentation:
To investigate the effects of base isolation on seismic SSI
response of a typical NI complex under coherent and incoherent
motions using probabilistic and deterministic SSI analyses and
different base-isolation systems, LRBs and HVDs.
The probabilistic and deterministic SSI analyses follow the
recommendations of the ASCE 4-16 standard.

The presentation illustrates key results of a series of studies, done in
two project phases, in 2015 (LRBs) and in 2019 (HVDs) to investigate
1) Effects of the base-isolation against no base-isolation for
rock sites and soil sites,
2) Effects of motion incoherency on SSI responses
3) Probabilistic SSI vs. deterministic SSI analysis
4) Comparison of SSI responses for 3D HVD base-isolators against
the 2D LRB base-isolators.
5) Concluding remarks

Incoherent Seismic Input:
- For the comparative coherent vs. incoherent deterministic SSI analysis
study, a uniform soil deposit with a Vs of 2,000 fps was considered.
- The incoherent motion was defined based on the Abrahamson
coherence function for soil sites (Abrahamson, 2007).
- Additionally, an apparent traveling wave velocity of 6,000 fps was
included to simulate wave passage effects in X-longitudinal direction.
- For the incoherent SSI analysis, the rigorous stochastic simulation
approach (with no phase adjustment) based on an accurate Monte
Carlo soil motion wavefield simulations was used.
- Several incoherent seismic wavefields were simulated.

- Probabilistic SSI analysis results are larger than Deterministic
SSI analysis results for the coherent inputs.
- Probabilistic SSI analysis produces significantly larger ISRS
amplifications for the higher frequency modes.
- Motion incoherency increases significantly the ISRS and the
relative displacements within the NI complex.
For the coherent-incoherent comparisons, extreme
incoherency and wave passage, to evaluate the upper bound
effects due to the motion spatial variation.

5. CONCLUDING REMARKS
1. Seismic base-isolation is highly effective for both the
rock and soil sites.
2. Motion incoherency may largely amplify the horizontal
ISRS and the relative displacements within NI complex
3. 3D HVD isolators are more effective than the 2D LRB
isolators, especially for the vertical motions.
