Three‐Dimensional Seismic Analysis of La Villita Dam
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The three‐dimensional response of La Villita, an earth and rock‐fill dam in Mexico, during the earthquakes of November 15, 1975 and September 19, 1985, is investigated. A simplified numerical procedure is derived to represent ...

Data Reduction and Dynamic p-y Curves of Helical Piles from Large-Scale Shake Table Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A helical pile is composed of a steel shaft and single or multiple helical plates welded to its shaft. This study investigated full-scale seismic soil reactions for helical piles embedded in dry sand. Ten helical and driven ...
Lotung Downhole Array. II: Evaluation of Soil Nonlinear Properties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The characteristics of soil response during earthquake excitations, at a site in Lotung, Taiwan are identified using the Lotung large scale seismic test (LSST) data. A technique is developed to evaluate soil shear ...
Lotung Downhole Array. I: Evaluation of Site Dynamic Properties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Lotung large-scale seismic test (LSST) site in Taiwan was instrumented in 1985 with an array of downhole and surface accelerometers, by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), Palo Alto, Calif., and the Taiwan ...
