Evaluating Lateral Spreading Using Newmark Method Based on Liquefaction Triggering
TL;DR: In this article, a simplified prediction method based upon Newmark sliding block analysis was proposed to predict the liquefaction-induced lateral spreading, which was evaluated against five well-documented case histories and the predicted displacements of lateral spreading were subsequently compared with the observed displacements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity of site response analysis on the number of ground motion records and implications for PSHA
M. Papaspiliou,Stavroula Kontoe +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the minimum number of ground-motion records required for the performance of site response analysis and the inclusion of the site-specific amplification function within probabilistic seismic hazard calculations (PSHA) was investigated.
Effect of soil type on seismic demand
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical parametric study is performed using a 1-D nonlinear site response analysis in order to capture the effect of soil characteristics on structural seismic demand and to scrutinize the validity of the current site specific seismic design spectra.

Recent advances in dynamic investigation of leaning tower of pisa
Camillo Nuti,Gabriele Fiorentino +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of historical seismicity, dynamic identification, definition of seismic input, site response analysis, and seismic response accounting for soil-structure interaction is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scrutiny of input motions for effective stress analysis of case-history sites from the 2010–2011 Canterbury earthquakes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify appropriate input motions for use with an effective-stress analysis procedure for liquefaction assessment of sites affected by the 2010 Mw7.1 Darfield and 2011 Mw6.2 Christchurch, New Zealand earthquakes.

Effect of Soil Plasticity on Cyclic Response
Mladen Vucetic,Ricardo Dobry +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a study on the influence of the plasticity index (PI) on the cyclic stress-strain parameters of saturated soils needed for site response evaluations and seismic microzonation is presented.

Moduli and Damping Factors for Dynamic Analyses of Cohesionless Soils
TL;DR: In this article, a simple relationship is proposed to relate the shear modulus of a cohesionless soil to a modulus stiffness coefficient, which is a soil property and depends on the characteristics of the soil, and the effective mean principal stress at any point in the soil.
