Abstract:
In the Dutch Republic slavery was not permitted on its soil in Western Europe. Enslaved people obtained their freedom by setting foot on Dutch soil. In 1776, the scope of this free soil principle was limited by a statute of the States General. From this moment onwards only slaves who remained in the Republic for longer than six months would automatically become free. In the literature, it was hitherto assumed that with the establishment of this statute the first debates about the scope of the free soil principle were initiated. This article demonstrates that this assumption is false. Previousl

Abstract:
Modeling the soil–structure interaction (SSI) in seismic design involves the use of soil response curves for single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) structures; however, real structures have multiple degrees of freedom (MDOF). In this study, shaking-table-derived p-y curves for SDOF and MDOF superstructures were compared using numerical analysis. It was found that an MDOF structure experienced less displacement than an SDOF structure of the same weight, but the effect of increasing the DOF decreased at greater pile depths.

When designing building frames for seismic reasons, the effect of soil flexibility is typically disregarded, and the design is executed using the outcomes of dynamic analysis with a fixed base condition. Because the overall lateral stiffness of the structure decreases as a result of soil flexibility, the lateral natural period lengthens. The building frames situated on the Raft foundation may experience a significant change in seismic response due to this extension of the lateral natural period (T). Therefore, it is imperative to consider the soil's flexibility, also known as soil structure in

The analysis is carried out by using mathematical perturbation theory. Modifications in the natural frequencies and existence of harmonics are demonstrated.

Abstract: Black freedom fighters have always been at the forefront pushing the United States to accept the ideals it was founded on and were—are—unrelenting in their groundbreaking campaigns for abolition, equality, and social justice. In this article, I argue that to add nuance and a greater understanding to the philosophies developed by such freedom fighters, it is necessary to evaluate the transatlantic connections between the United States and Britain. Complicating and expanding their calls for antiracism and anti-oppression, Black activists have gained an alternative international perspec

Abstract:
The concept of equivalent linearization is extended for the soil-structure systems, in which the strength ratio (defined as the ratio of the yielding strength to the elastic strength demand) is known rather than the ductility ratio. The nonlinear soil-structure system is replaced by a linear single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system, which can capture the response of the actual system with sufficient accuracy. The dynamic characteristics of the equivalent linear SDOF system are determined through a statistical approach. The super-structure is modeled by an inelastic SDOF system with bilinear beha

Abstract This paper investigates how the soil profile affects the vibration mitigation performance of seismic metamaterials in a wide frequency band (1 – 80 Hz). A 3D coupled finite element - boundary element (FE-BE) model with an efficient substructuring method is developed to analyze the vibration reduction performance of seismic metamaterials on top of a layered soil. Resonators are modeled as single degree of freedom systems on top of square concrete surface foundations. The response of uniform and graded metasurfaces on a homogeneous and layered halfspace due to harmonic point load are co

Based on the multi-degree of freedom in series model, structural displacement amplitude formula is derived in the frequency domain under the translation-rotation input situation, this formula indicates that the soil - structure interaction (SSI) could be considered as adding a correction term M˜ to the mass matrix of the structure with the hypothesis of Rigid foundation. This corrected mass matrix is actually a complex matrix, which related to the input frequency and damping. Equivalent translation-rotation input is coupled with two translation input components U* and Θ*. Besides, we uses case

The mechanism of this yielding and its behavior under seismic loading of soil are the primary focus of this investigation. Nonlinear analysis is taken into account to see the real behavior of soil. In order to analyze soil, we employ both its solid mass and its lumped mass. In this study, the Finite Element Model (FEM) forms the basis for the mathematical formulas. Soil analysis in the case of a lumped mass takes into account the soil's one DOF, two DOF, and multi DOF degrees of freedom. In order to determine soil characteristics for MDOF, a soil bore log must be employed. In the instance of M

Significant differences between the predicted and measured dynamic response of 3D rigid foundations on multi-layered soils in the time domain were identified due to the existence of uncertainties, which makes the issue a complicated one. In this study, a numerical method was developed to determine the dynamic responses of 3D rigid surfaces and embedded foundations of arbitrary shapes that are bonded to a multi-layered soil in the time domain. First, the dynamic stiffness matrices of the rigid foundations in the frequency domain are calculated via integral domain transformation. Secondly, a dyn

The present paper details the finite element implementation procedure for applying consistent boundaries for two-dimensional continuum soil-structure interaction systems. Consistent boundary conditions are ensured by applying rigorously calculated interaction forces at the truncated soil-structure interface. These calculations involve the evaluation of convolution integral on acceleration unit-impulse response functions for all boundary degrees of freedom for all time steps. The interactive or run-time evaluation of the interaction forces based on the past response history, is successfully car

The corresponding time history of the foundation shear caused by a specific input of ground displacement can be determined through the filter obtained, and the succeeding structural responses are then able to be found by the base force propagating
