Journal ArticleDOI
Seismic Soil-Pile-Structure Interaction Experiments and Analyses
TL;DR: A dynamic beam on a nonlinear Winkler foundation (or "dynamic p-y") analysis method for analyzing seismic soil-pile-structure interaction was evaluated against the results of a series of dynamic centrifuge model tests as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of Seismically Induced Settlement of Buildings with Shallow Foundations on Liquefiable Soil
TL;DR: In this article, a series of centrifuge experiments involving buildings situated atop a layered soil deposit have been performed to identify the mechanisms involved in liquefaction-induced building settlement, including building-induced shear deformations combined with localized volumetric strains during partially drained cyclic loading are the dominant mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observed Seismic Lateral Resistance of Liquefying Sand
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from a study of the dynamic response of pile foundations in liquefying sand during seismic loading, including a series of dynamic centrifuge tests of pile-supported structures and the back-calculation of time histories for the lateral resistance p and relative displacement y between a pile and the free-field soil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Centrifuge Testing to Evaluate and Mitigate Liquefaction-Induced Building Settlement Mechanisms
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the relative importance of key settlement mechanisms by using mitigation techniques to minimize some of their respective contributions and found that the importance of settlement mechanisms depend on the characteristics of the earthquake motion, liquefiable soil, and building.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Beam on Nonlinear Winkler Foundation (BNWF) method to predict results of model tests of single piles in a soft clay soil profile and showed that calculations from these computer codes can be sensitive to the details of the arrangement of nonlinear springs and linear viscous dashpots.
