A simplified nonlinear sway-rocking model for evaluation of seismic response of structures on shallow foundations

This paper presents a simplified Nonlinear Sway-Rocking model as a preliminary design tool for seismic soil-structure interaction analysis. The proposed model is intended to capture the nonlinear load-displacement response of shallow foundations during strong earthquake events where foundation beari...
