One-Dimensional Nonlinear Seismic Response Analysis Using Strength-Controlled Constitutive Models: The Case of the Leaning Tower of Pisa’s Subsoil

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of using new strength-controlled constitutive models in case of 1D nonlinear response analysis is highlighted, which can significantly affect the assessment of a 1D response analysis and the Leaning Tower's subsoil can be useful for this study as it represents a well-documented and well-characterized site.

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.
