dc.description.abstractIn this study we focus at examining an efficient high order finite element strategy to compute the dynamic response of heterogeneous basins under nonlinear soil behavior subjected to point-source earthquake events -- The numerical technique known as the Spectral Cell Method (SCM) combines Fictitious-Domains concepts with the Spectral-version of the finite element method to accurately solve the wave equations in heterogeneous geophysical domains -- We tested the SCM in physically and computationally challenging domains namely, (i) a semi-elliptical basin, and (ii) an undulated basin embedded in a half-space with several irregular geological structures with different material discontinuities -- Nonlinear behavior is considered by implementing a Mohr-Coulomb, and a Drucker- Prager yielding criteria -- We benchmark our simulations with results obtained using MIDAS GTS NX, a finite element tool for geotechnical applications based upon traditional boundary-fitted meshing techniquesspa
