ABSTRACT
At the end of each day of the workshop, a discussion session was conducted with the aim of eliciting important comments about issues and new trends related to the current state of understanding of the seismic performance of Soil-Foundation-Structure (SFS) systems and related topics. The first discussion session dealt with the dynamics of SFS systems while the second session focused on nonlinear SFS interaction. During the sessions, the discussions also shifted to identifying the significant issues presented by each workshop speaker. In this summary, only the general topics taken up for discussion are outlined and presented. The more detailed topic discussions are incorporated by the authors when they revised their respective papers for publication.
