Soil–pile–structure interaction: experimental outcomes from shaking table tests
Maria Giovanna Durante,Luigi Di Sarno,George Mylonakis,Colin Anthony Taylor,Armando Lucio Simonelli +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental model consisting of an oscillator connected to a single or a group of piles embedded in a bi-layer deposit was used to study the modal dynamic response of the soil-pile-structure system in terms of period elongation and system damping ratio.

Characterisation of shear wave velocity profiles of non-uniform bi-layer soil deposits: Analytical evaluation and experimental validation
Maria Giovanna Durante,Dimitris K Karamitros,Luigi Di Sarno,Stefania Sica,Colin Anthony Taylor,George Mylonakis,Armando Lucio Simonelli +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified analytical procedure for determining the shear wave velocity profile (Vs) in a single or bi-layer deposit, taking into account the inhomogeneity of the individual soil layers, under the hypothesis of vanishing shear modulus at ground surface, is presented.
