The eyclc dis: placenicnt of a foundation can have six possible modes. They are 1. translation in the vertical direction, 2, anslation in the longitudinal diection, 2. translation in the lateral direction, 4 is (that is, yawing), 5 ituinal axis (that is, rocking). and rotation about the vertical rotation about the lor 6, rolation about i axis (that is, pitching). tn this chapter, the fundamentals of the vibrati modes, eupported on that a op n of foundations, in various clastic mediusn will be developed.

This study included cases i ‘which the oscillating force facts in the vertical direction and ja the horizontal itcction, as shown in Figure 5.1a and b. This is genersiy refetted to as the lyname Hossinesy problem, 4m 1936, Reissner unilyzed the problem of vibration of a uniformly lowed flexible circular area resting on an elastic half-space. The solution was obtained by integration of Lamb's solution for a point load.
