Selection of representative shear modulus reduction and damping curves for rock, gravel and sand sites from the KiK-Net downhole array

P. Anbazhagan, +5 more
- 22 Jun 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt has been made to identify suitable shear modulus and damping curves for soil grouped into different classes viz. sand, gravel and rock, and a detailed analysis is made to find out which set of curves gives a best match with the recorded data.

Soil Uncertainty and Its Influence on Simulated G/G max and Damping Behavior

Kallol Sett, +4 more
- 01 Mar 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a simple von Mises elastic-perfectly plastic material model was used for simulation of cyclic behavior of clay, and probabilistic soil parameters, elastic shear modulus (Gmax) and undrained shear strength (su), were obtained from correlations with the standard penetration test (SPT) N-value.

Moduli and Damping Factors for Dynamic Analyses of Cohesionless Soils

H. Bolton Seed, +3 more
- 01 Nov 1986 - 
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.
