Numerical modelling of offshore foundations for jacket structures
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the dynamic soil−foundation interaction of offshore wind turbines, focusing on different types of foundations (suction caissons and hollow steel piles), different load conditions (cyclic and dynamic) and soil conditions.

Comparison and Correction of Modulus Reduction Models for Clays and Silts
TL;DR: This study compares five prediction models of G/Gmax from previous studies, which use common predictor variables of cyclic shear strain amplitude, effective confining stress, and plasticity index.

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology for a large-scale assessment of soil-structure interaction (SSI) effects on the vibrational characteristics and the seismic loading of structures in a real urban fabric by combining airborne monitoring techniques, field surveys and simple calculations in the realm of structural and geotechnical dynamics is presented.

How topography-dependent are topographic effects? Complementary numerical modeling of centrifuge experiments
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the container boundary on topographic effects observed in the centrifuge experiments by performing numerical simulations with and without the container boundaries was investigated, and it was shown that the rigid-body rocking motion of the vessel likely increased the experimental topographic spectral ratios, contributing to the discrepancy between simulated and observed spectral ratios.

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.
