Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of the study indicate that there are certain regimes where the elastic theory could be used to determine the dynamic magnification factors. Further, elastic theory does not appear to be applicable over the entire pressure domain nor does it appear to predict the location of the maximum strain. A majority of the observed phenomena may be explained by the fact that the static transmissibility of the soil increases in higher pressure regions and by the fact that the dynamic transmissibility is higher than the static for the low pressure regions. Both the static and dynamic transmissibilities seem to converge in the higher pressure regions. (Author).

This book was released on 1968 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A general-purpose test facility for determining the one-dimensional compression characteristics of soils subjected to impulse-type loads has been developed in order to help satisfy the ever-increasing demand for reliable soil-property data required in support of a wide variety of nuclear-weapons-effects-related problems. The design, fabrication, installation, and evaluation of the various elements which together comprise the test facility were accomplished. The various considerations involved in the design and evaluation of the newly developed test facility are discussed in detail, thus providing some insight into the types of factors which affect the experimental-accuracy capability of a one-dimensional compression test facility and thereby the reliability of the data obtained under any particular set of conditions.

This book was released on 1967 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report describes a definitive experimental study in which shock-induced square-wave pulses in soil were observed to give way to decaying pulse shapes, as in a gas shock tube, and rapid attenuation of peak stress occurred thereafter due to nonlinear propagation in the rarefaction. In the study three different duration pulses were applied to an 8-ft vertical column of granular material confined under boundary conditions leading to a stress-strain (Sigma - Epsilon) behavior described by d to the 2nd power Sigma/d Epsilon to the 2nd power> 0, i.e., a strain-hardening type of response. Applied stresses ranged from 50 to 500 psi. The report describes a simple modification to be applied to the prediction procedure described in the first report of this series in order to take into account, to a first approximation, the nonlinear propagation of unloading waves that occurs in real media because of nonlinear stress-strain behavior in the unloading branch. The procedure which predicts stress and motion histories based on the conservation laws, a measured constitutive relationship, and the applied pressure-time profile, is demonstrated by predicting the entire sequence of an experimentally observed square-wave pulse transformation into a decaying pulse.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the study was to investigate and verify model-to-prototype scaling relations for blast loaded buried arches that respond both elastically and inelastically. Four geometrically similar, semicircular aluminum alloy arches with 4-, 8-, 12-, and 36-inch diameters were buried in dense dry sand and subjected to air-blast-induced loads on the surface. The tests were conducted at the Large Blast Load Generator located at the U.S. Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station. The results of two series of tests, each consisting of 3 repeated shots, ranging from 70 to 300 psi, are presented. Within the range of parameters investigated, the scaling of the dependent variables were adequately verified. These variables included acceleration, velocity, displacement, thrust, and bending moment. (Author).
