Notes:
A deep-based (i.e. deeply buried) structure subjected to stress wave loading is analyzed probabilistically. The finite element method, coupled with a fast probability integration technique, is used to perform the analysis. Randomness due to uncertainties in loading and stratum material properties is addressed. The results presented, although for an idealized linear elastodynamic problem, clearly demonstrate that more realistic probabilistic analyses of impulsively loaded deep-base structures are feasible.
