Regression Models for Dynamic Properties of Highly Organic Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Regression models are presented for the dynamic properties of highly organic soils. The models are based on a database of triaxial and resonant-column/torsional-shear cyclic loading tests on thin walled tube samples mainly ...
Dynamic Properties of Highly Organic Soils from Montezuma Slough and Clifton Court
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The nonlinear dynamic properties of highly organic soils from two levee sites in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta in California are described. Cyclic triaxial, resonant column and torsional shear tests were performed on ...
Dynamic Properties of Sherman Island Peat
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dynamic properties of peat have been identified as major source of uncertainty in the evaluation of seismic hazards throughout the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta in northern California. This paper summarizes the results ...
Nonlinear Dynamic Properties of a Fibrous Organic Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The nonlinear dynamic properties of a fibrous peaty organic soil beneath a levee in the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta in California are described herein. Thin-walled tube samples were obtained from four locations between ...
