A topic of long standing interest to both structural and geotechnical engineers is what is traditionally known as soil-structure
interaction (SSI). For a long period, this has involved linear elastic
interaction between the foundation and the underlying soil and the appropriate
analysis is well developed for both static and dynamic interaction. In recent
years, there has been a growing interest in considering nonlinear soil-foundation interaction in the design of shallow foundations, both for static and
earthquake loading. To distinguish these approaches from the classical linear
elastic soil-structure interaction, the term soil-foundation-structure-interaction (SFSI) has been
coined recently. The development of various approaches is occurring rapidly in
many research groups all over the world, with the inclusion of nonlinear
structure and nonlinear soil interaction using FEM-based numerical methods, as
well as the use of shallow foundation macro-elements as an alternative to using
finite elements.
