Full-Scale Shake Table Cyclic Simple Shear Testing of Liquefiable Soil
… of field-scale index testing before and after cyclic loading. Testing was performed at the Parson’s geotechnical and Earthquake Laboratory at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo on the 1-dimensional shake table with a mounted flexible walled testing apparatus. The testing apparatus, originally constructed …

Measuring Liquefied Residual Strength Using Full-Scale Shake Table Cyclic Simple Shear Tests
<p>This research consists of full-scale cyclic shake table tests to investigate liquefied residual strength of #2/16 Monterey Sand. A simple shear testing apparatus was mounted to a full-scale one-dimensional shake table to mimic a confined layer of saturated sand subjected to strong ground …

Drained cyclic preshearing effects on the liquefaction resistance of sands
… resistance of coarse-grained soils. Among these, shearing history has been shown to either decrease or increase liquefaction resistance. This past shearing – known as “preshearing” – is defined as the process of minor grain adjustments into a more stable configuration under external shear stress, …

Factors Influencing the Post-Earthquake Shear Strength
… have emphasized the need to study the cyclic and post-cyclic behavior of these materials. Moreover, if strength loss as a result of cyclic loading were to occur in the material comprising the dam and/or dam foundation, the consequences of failure could be substantial. The objective of …

Application of Fatigue Theories to Seismic Compression Estimation and the Evaluation of Liquefaction Potential
… is the accrual of volumetric strains caused by cyclic loading, and presented herein is a "non-simplified" model to estimate seismic compression. The proposed model is based on a modified version of the Richart-Newmark non-linear cumulative damage hypothesis, and was calibrated from the results …

Influencia de la combinación de tensiones tangenciales estáticas y cíclicas en la evaluación de parámetros dinámicos de un suelo cohesivo
… tesis se realizaron en total 20 pruebas de corte simple estático y 142 de corte simple cíclico con diferentes combinaciones de tensiones tangenciales estáticas (o) y tensiones tangenciales cíclicas (c). Tanto las tensiones estáticas como las cíclicas se fijaron como un porcentaje de la tensión …
