NGA Ground Motion Model for the Geometric Mean Horizontal Component of PGA, PGV, PGD and 5% Damped Linear Elastic Response Spectra for Periods Ranging from 0.01 to 10 s
TL;DR: In this article, a new empirical ground motion model for PGA, PGV, PGD and 5% damped linear elastic response spectra for periods ranging from 0.01-10 s was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the Liquefaction Susceptibility of Fine-Grained Soils
TL;DR: The results of cyclic tests indicate that the Chinese criteria are not reliable for determining the liquefaction susceptibility of fine-grained soils as discussed by the authors, and the plasticity index (PI) is a better indicator of soil susceptibility.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normalized shear modulus and material damping ratio relationships
TL;DR: In this article, a modified hyperbolic model and a statistical analysis of existing Resonant Column and Torsional Shear test results for 122 specimens obtained from South Carolina, North Carolina, and Alabama are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Damping formulation for nonlinear 1D site response analyses
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented two new soil damping formulations implemented in nonlinear one-dimensional site response analysis for small and large strains, which were used separately and simultaneously in non-linear site response analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Simultaneous Inversion of Rayleigh Phase Velocity and Attenuation for Near-Surface Site Characterization
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the simultaneous inverse inversion of Rayleigh Phase Velocity and Attenuation for Near-Surface Site at a near-surface site at the Georgia Institute of Technology.
Seismic-Wave-Based Testing In Geotechnical Engineering
TL;DR: A brief review of the fundamental concepts of seismic wave testing as applied in geotechnical engineering is presented in this paper, where case histories are illustrated through case histories, which also highlight some of the strengths and inherent limitations of the methods.
Effects of various parameters on the stiffness and damping of soils at small to medium strains
TL;DR: The results of three different dynamic laboratory studies are presented in this paper, where the effects of anisotropic stress state and inherent anisotropy on the small-strain stiffness of the soil skeleton are evaluated.
