Features: This book primarily discusses the seismic damage of underground structures and its characteristics, seismic calculation and design methods for underground structures, and seismic structural measures for underground structures. It specifically includes an introduction to seismic resistance of underground structures, seismic damage of underground structures, earthquakes and seismic zoning, dynamic properties of soil under earthquakes and calculation of seismic acoustic energy response, dynamic interaction between soil and structures, stress waves in geotechnical engineering, dynamic calculation boundaries, seismic calculation methods for underground structures, seismic model experiments for underground structures, as well as seismic design principles and structural measures. The book incorporates the authors' recent research achievements in this field and introduces the principles and analytical calculation methods of seismic resistance for underground structures, along with practical examples from China. It serves as a reference for designers and researchers engaged in seismic engineering and can also be used as a teaching reference for postgraduate students and senior undergraduate students in civil engineering and underground structure majors in higher education institutions.
