RISSelection of Near-Fault Pulse Motions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Earthquake ground motions in the near-fault region frequently have intense, double-sided pulses in the velocity-time series that can be very damaging to structures. Many of these velocity pulses are attributed to the effects ...
Centrifuge Tests of Adjacent Mat-Supported Buildings Affected by Liquefaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Geotechnical centrifuge tests can provide valuable insights into the mechanisms governing the performance of buildings affected by liquefaction. An area particularly lacking knowledge is the effect of liquefaction on ...
Design, Modeling, and Control of a Hardware-in-the-Loop Testbed for Off-Road Vehicles1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the design, modeling, and control of a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testbed for off-road vehicles. The proposed HIL testbed employs a transient hydrostatic dynamometer to load a diesel engine to emulate ...
Assessment of Existing SPT–CPT Correlations Using a New Zealand Database
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Using a database of approximately 900 data pairs from 230 sites of co-located cone penetration test (CPT) soundings and boreholes with standard penetration tests (SPT) in the South Island of New Zealand, this paper assesses ...
