Dynamic characterisation of soils and seismic analysis of deep foundations

Abstract

Site specific or region specific strain dependent dynamic soil properties and liquefaction parameters are the primary input parameters required for efficient earthquake resistant design of structures The present study aims to investigate the dynamic behavior of soils sampled from active seismic regions of India and establish region specific comprehensive strain dependent design stiffness curves for use in earthquake geotechnical applications The study also was targeted to demonstrate the appli...
