Seismic Behavior of Building Frames Considering Dynamic Soil-Structure Interaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The seismic excitation experienced by structures is a function of the earthquake source, travel path effects, local site effects, and soil-structure interaction (SSI) influences. The result of the first three of these ...
One-Dimensional Consolidation Analysis of Unsaturated Soils Subjected to Time-Dependent Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: During consolidation, excess pore-air and pore-water pressures are forced to dissipate through permeable boundaries. This dissipation process inevitably results in the reduction of the soil volume, and thus settlement. ...
Fully Nonlinear versus Equivalent Linear Computation Method for Seismic Analysis of Midrise Buildings on Soft Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the accuracy of a fully nonlinear method against an equivalent linear method for dynamic analysis of soil-structure interaction is investigated comparing the predicted results of both numerical procedures. ...
Assessment of the Elastic-Viscoplastic Behavior of Soft Soils Improved with Vertical Drains Capturing Reduced Shear Strength of a Disturbed Zone
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Soil disturbance induced by the installation of vertical drains reduces the horizontal soil permeability and shear strength in the disturbed zone. Thus, the soil disturbance contributes to the reduced overconsolidation ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigations to Evaluate Two-Dimensional Modeling of Vertical Drain–Assisted Preloading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the efficiency of proposed formulations for plane-strain modeling of vertical drain–assisted consolidation was evaluated. For this aim, the vertical drain–assisted preloading process was experimentally ...
Physical Modeling of Seismic Soil-Pile-Structure Interaction for Buildings on Soft Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present research intends to study the effects of the seismic soil-pile-structure interaction (SSPSI) on the dynamic response of buildings with various heights by conducting a series of shaking table tests on 5-, 10-story, ...
Improving Rockbolt Design in Tunnels Using Topology Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Finding an optimum reinforcement layout for underground excavation can result in a safer and more economical design, and is therefore highly desirable. Some works in the literature have applied topology optimization in ...
