Soil vibration represents a problem endangering buildings and structures. Waves propagate through the soil and interact with buildings. Their interaction may cause damage to nearby structures. Horizontal Rayleigh waves or any other waves generated by dynamic loads are considered in this paper. The soil medium is assumed to be linear, elastic, homogeneous and isotropic. The energy associated with any surface waves can be absorbed and damped by the barriers due to geometric and material damping. Application of wave barriers as a method of isolation of structures and foundations from vibrations transmitted in the soil enjoys moderate success. In this research, various open and in-filled trenches used as wave barriers are studied. For this purpose, an extensive parametric analysis has been completed using FLAC-2D software. The findings have proven the efficiency of wave barriers if used in the presence of the structure and applied to suppress the effect of impulse loading on the soil surface. The findings demonstrate that the proposed system composed of the in-filled trench and the structure performs well, as it efficiently reduces the energy of surface waves, although the findings have some exceptions. The discrepancy between the findings of the authors and other researchers may be explained by a different type of load and the presence of a structure.

Wave barriers are intended to mitigate vibration transmission in the soil. They include open and infilled trenches, sheet piles, etc. In this study, a two-dimensional finite difference element analysis was performed using FLAC-2D software as a research into the efficiency of open and infilled barriers exposed to dynamic loading with or without the presence of structures. In this contribution, two constitutive models are considered to study the soil response in the elastic and elastoplastic range with account for yield, failure and potential functions of soil plasticity. The results were assessed with account for reduced soil particle displacements on the ground surface exposed to impulse loading.The numerical analysis has proven that the results obtained by assigning elastic properties to the soil material fail to comply with the results obtained by analyzing the model having non-linear properties of soils. The presence of a structure produces a significantly larger effect onto the efficiency of barriers by reducing the surface wave energy.

This study consists in numerical modeling of the nonlinear response of soil. The study is a research into the protective performance of both open and in-filled trenches and an examination of the influence produced by (1) the shape of trenches and (2) their position in relation to sources of vibration and structures on the isolation efficiency of barriers. Assessments were based on reduction in horizontal displacements of soil particles on the ground surface exposed to impulse loading. Also, results of numerical researches are analyzed and interpreted to provide recommendations for their implementation and guides for barrier designers. Three points of loading were analyzed and an attenuation curve of soil displacement was drawn; the curve follows the projected trends, as it decays in the horizontal direction on the ground surface. The structure produces substantial effect on the efficiency of open barriers in terms of the surface wave energy.
