Evaluating nonlinear effective stress site response analyses using records from the Canterbury earthquake sequence
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional nonlinear effective stress site response analysis program is used to model the response of potentially liquefiable soils during strong shaking, using ground motion records from six events of the 2010-2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence and the extensive site investigation data that have been obtained for the Christchurch area.

Physical Hypotheses for Adjusting Coarse Profiles and Improving 1D Site‐Response Estimation Assessed at 10 KiK‐net Sites
TL;DR: In this paper, a depth-dependent shear-wave velocity (VS) gradient within layers was applied to the 1D linear, equivalent-linear, and nonlinear site-response models.

Probabilistic seismic analysis of offshore platforms incorporating uncertainty in soil–pile–structure interactions
TL;DR: In this article, a methodology is presented to incorporate uncertainties associated with seismic loads, characterization of structural model parameters, and description of soil properties in the probabilistic assessment of seismic-related damage of existing jacket type offshore platforms located in seismic active areas.

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.
