Journal ArticleDOI
Computational Model for Cyclic Mobility and Associated Shear Deformation
TL;DR: In this article, a more convenient approach is adopted in which the domain of large shear strain is directly defined by strain space parameters, and the observed cyclic shear deformation is accounted for by enlargement and/or translation of this domain in deviatoric strain space.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling of cyclic mobility in saturated cohesionless soils
TL;DR: In this paper, a multiscale plasticity model was developed for capturing the characteristics of cyclic mobility in saturated medium to dense cohesionless soils during liquefaction, due to soil skeleton dilation at large shear strain excursions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational modeling of cyclic mobility and post-liquefaction site response
TL;DR: In this paper, a plasticity-based constitutive model is developed with emphasis on simulating the cyclic mobility response mechanism and associated pattern of shear strain accumulation, which has been documented by a large body of laboratory sample tests and centrifuge experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Dimensional Seismic Response of Humboldt Bay Bridge-Foundation-Ground System
TL;DR: In this article, a bridge-foundation ground model is developed based on the structural configuration and local soil conditions of the Humboldt Bay Middle Channel Bridge, and the simulation results show that permanent ground deformation may induce settlement and longitudinal/transversal displacements of the abutments and deep foundations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Permeability on Liquefaction-Induced Shear Deformation
Zhaohui Yang,Ahmed Elgamal +1 more
TL;DR: Permeability of a soil profile may affect the rate of pore-pressure buildup and subsequent dissipation during and after earthquake excitation as mentioned in this paper, thus, effective soil confinement may be needed.
