Popis: A nonlinear version of the program ZOND (nonlinear) has been developed based on the dependence of the shear and absorption modulus values on the seismic impact intensity, as well as on the introduction of ratios for calculating various indicators of soil movement (normal stress, deformation, etc.). The program algorithm is based on the multiple-reflected waves theory. An accelerogram of an earthquake, recorded on a rocky ground in Japan with earthquake characteristics similar to those for the territory of Tbilisi (magnitude, epicentral distance, spectral features, etc.), was chosen as an accelerogram set into the bedrock from the generated strong motion database AGESAS. The results of linear and nonlinear calculations with and without absorption are presented. It is clearly seen that with an increase in the intensity of the impact, the nonlinearity manifestation increases. At the same time, absorption increases. In this regard, the resulting movement at very high levels of impact may be below the initial level. This corresponds to the facts known from the analysis of the consequences of strong earthquakes that have occurred in recent years.
