Experimental assessment of the mechanical behavior of immersion joints and a seismic mitigation method in immersed tunnels
… use in practice. During this testing cases, a hysteretic loop was observed in both axial and flexural behavior of the joint, indicating that the rubber seal is not perfectly hyper-elastic material as assumed and energy-dissipation did occur. Moreover, an asymmetric bending behavior was observed …

Shear Modulus Degradation of Liquefying Sand: Quantification and Modeling
… backbone curve method" reasonably predicts the hysteretic shear stress behavior of the liquefied sand. The shear stresses and ground accelerations computed using this method reasonably matches those recorded at the Port Island Downhole Array (PIDA) site. The degrading shear modulus backbone …
