The effects of multi-directional loading on soil liquefaction
… for the first time, the influence of multi-directional shearing on soil behaviour, especially the undrained behaviour of saturated sands, remains one of the least understood areas in geotechnics. This study developed a new test database on Hostun sand with the modified …

Impact of complex system behavior on seismic assessment of RC bridges
… with irregular or curved geometry subjected to multi-directional loading is non-trivial. The effect of the resulting combined interactions on structural response and its implications on system-level bridge vulnerability are assessed in this study. Fragility curves generated for bridges with …

Numerical simulations of site response and seismic settlements at Kashiwazaki-Kariwa Nuclear Power Plant, Japan
… pressure coupled numerical modeling of multi-directional shear and volumetric response of Service Hall free-field site and Arahama Site on which the reactor and turbine buildings, as well as the transformer house are located using a newly developed soil-constitutive model in LS-DYNA. The …

Experimentally validated DEM modelling of granular materials under simple shear testing
… the response of granular materials under uni-directional and multi-directional loading. DEM modelling provides complementary information such as contact networks and particle movements, that is underlying, but not observed directly from the experiments. In this study, a number of …

Performance of C-Shaped structural concrete walls subjected to bi-directional loading
… for the effects of non-planar geometry and multi-directional loading. To improve the understanding of the three-dimensional and asymmetric response of coupled core walls, an experimental testing program of C-shaped walls subjected to uni-directional and bi-directional cyclic loading was …
