Download or read book Soil Dynamics and Soil Structure Interaction for Resilient Infrastructure written by Tarek Abdoun and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infrastructure is the key to creating a sustainable community. It affects our future well-being as well as the economic climate. Indeed, the infrastructure we are building today will shape tomorrow's communities. GeoMEast 2017 created a venue for researchers and practitioners from all over the world to share their expertise to advance the role of innovative geotechnology in developing sustainable infrastructure. This volume focuses on the role of soil-structure-interaction and soil dynamics. It discusses case studies as well as physical and numerical models of geo-structures. It covers: Soil-Structure-Interaction under static and dynamic loads, dynamic behavior of soils, and soil liquefaction. It is hoped that this volume will contribute to further advance the state-of-the-art for the next generation infrastructure. This volume is part of the proceedings of the 1st GeoMEast International Congress and Exhibition on Sustainable Civil Infrastructures, Egypt 2017.
Download or read book Effect of Loading Frequency on Dynamic Properties of Soils Using Resonant Column written by Soheil Moayerian and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dynamic properties of soils (shear stiffness and damping ratio) are critical for the design of structures subjected to vibrations. The dynamic properties of a benchmark standardized laboratory sand (Ottawa silica sand) were evaluated with two different resonant column devices, utilising software with different analytical approaches for the evaluation of soil properties. The dynamic properties (shear modulus and damping ratio) are evaluated as a function of the shear strain level. The results are compared to evaluate the effect of the type of equipment and the form of the data analysis on the measured dynamic properties of the samples. The results are discussed in light of the applicability of the procedures in practice, the ease of the testing methods, and the errors they introduced into analysis and design. In general, the shear wave velocities obtained from the two different devices are in good agreement. However, the damping ratios they give show considerable differences as strains increase. Dynamic properties are typically measured by curve fitting of the transfer function between the excitation and the response using the resonant column device. However, the force function generated by sinusoidal sweep or random noise excitations induce different shear strain levels at different frequencies. Consequently, the shape of the measured transfer function is distorted and differs from the theoretical transfer function for an equivalent single-degree-of-freedom system. The difference between the measured and theoretical transfer functions as well as the bias in the computed dynamic properties becomes more pronounced with the increase in shear strain. This study presents a new methodology for the evaluation of dynamic properties from an equivalent constant-strain transfer function. The soil specimen is excited simultaneously using a sinusoidal excitation (carrier signal) at the required strain level and a small amplitude, narrow band random noise. The strain level induced by the fixed sine is shown to control the resonant frequency of the specimen; whereas the random noise introduces the required frequency bandwidth to determine the transfer function and hence the dynamic properties at a constant strain level. The new methodology also shows a good potential for the evaluation of frequency effects on the dynamic properties of soils in resonant column testing.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the last couple of decades it has been recognized that the foundation material on which a structure is constructed may interact dynamically with the structure during its response to dynamic excitation to the extent that the stresses and deflections in the system are modified from the values that would have been developed if it had been on a rigid foundation. This phenomenon is examined in detail in the book. The basic solutions are examined in time and frequency domains and finite element and boundary element solutions compared. Experimental investigations aimed at correlation and verification with theory are described in detail. A wide variety of SSI problems may be formulated and solved approximately using simplified models in lieu of rigorous procedures; the book gives a good overview of these methods. A feature which often lacks in other texts on the subject is the way in which dynamic behavior of soil can be modeled. Two contributors have addressed this problem from the computational and physical characterization viewpoints. The book illustrates practical areas with the analysis of tunnel linings and stiffness and damping of pile groups. Finally, design code provisions and derivation of design input motions complete this thorough overview of SSI in conventional engineering practice. Taken in its entirety the book, authored by fifteen well known experts, gives an in-depth review of soil-structure interaction across a broad spectrum of aspects usually not covered in a single volume. It should be a readily useable reference for the research worker as well as the advance level practitioner. (abstract) This book treats the dynamic soil-structure interaction phenomenon across a broad spectrum of aspects ranging from basic theory, simplified and rigorous solution techniques and their comparisons as well as successes in predicting experimentally recorded measurements. Dynamic soil behavior and practical problems are given thorough coverage. It is intended to serve both as a readily understandable reference work for the researcher and the advanced-level practitioner.
