Abstract: The influence of pore water on the dynamic soil-structure interaction process has been studied. The equations of motion of the two phase soil/water system are presented and the corresponding finite element analogy developed. Numerical results have then been generated to determine the influence of pore water on the dynamic compliance coefficients typically used for seismic interaction studies. The results indicate that pore water significantly influences both the magnitude and character of these coefficients.
