Abstract: In this paper, the kinematic forces which may be applied to bridge piers or pile caps from laterally spreading surficial cohesive soil layers (nonliquefied crusts) through which they pass are considered. Such forces often ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a series of dynamic centrifuge tests that were conducted for

Abstract: The results of a series of dynamic centrifuge tests on model pile groups in (level) liquefied and laterally spreading soil profiles are presented. The piles are axially loaded at typical working loads, which has enabled ...

Abstract: This paper discusses the modeling of reinforced concrete structural elements for use in geotechnical centrifuge modeling of soil-structure interaction problems. Centrifuges are employed in geotechnical modeling so that the ...
