Abstract

At the soil-structure interface, there are some frontier problems, such as non-linearity, large deformation and local discontinuity, which is one of the core topics in the study of soil and structure interaction. This paper introduced the progress and present situation of the mechanical behavior of soil-structure interface in laboratory test, constitutive model and numerical simulation, analyses the problems that have not been studied in depth and pointed out that the determination of thickness of the contact surface, the sensitivity analysis of the mechanical parameters of the contact surface and the dynamic contact questions would be the main research trend in the future.
