Winkler modeling of vertical shafts in rock under vertically propagating shear waves: Verification code
Year: 2026
Type: software
Abstract: Official Python implementation accompanying the manuscript submitted for publication: Winkler modeling of surge shafts in rock under vertically propagating shear waves (2026). Two models for seismic analysis of vertical shafts in rock are implemented in the code: Analytical: The closed-form frequency-domain solution based on classic 1D ground response analysis and Winkler mechanics, developed specifically for the analysis of surge shafts in rock. Numerical: Ground response analysis using pyStrata (frequency-domain) and time-domain structural analysis in OpenSeesPy. The two models were implemented as consistently as possible, to avoid gross errors and numerical artifacts.
