A Modified Frequency-Dependent Equivalent Linear Method for Seismic Site Response Analyses and Model Validation using KiK-Net Borehole Arrays

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified frequency-dependent equivalent linear method (M-FD-EQL) was proposed to improve 1D site response at high frequencies, where a combination factor was used to interpolate the strain spectrum.

Evaluation of the Nonlinear Seismic Response of an Earth Dam: Nonparametric System Identification

TL;DR: In this paper, a system identification framework is proposed to investigate the nonlinear dynamic response of massive earth dams using the seismic motion recorded by a sparse array of accelerometers, which includes a methodical step of nonparametric analyses to characterize the involved loading conditions and response mechanisms.

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.
