Rock and Soil Mechanics

A numerical model of the liquefaction horizontal free-field shaking table test was developed based on the completed large-scale shaking table test of liquefaction horizontal free field using the OpenSees finite element platform, and the numerical model was verified. Based on this, a free-field numerical model of the overall inclined foundation was established, and the non-cyclic dynamic response of the liquefaction lateral spreading site and the mechanism of liquefaction-induced lateral spreading were discussed. The results show that the established numerical model can effectively simulate the seismic response in liquefiable sites. There was significant relative displacement at the interface between liquefiable loose …

Rock and Soil Mechanics

Based on the continuous medium model and the pile-soil interaction, the horizontal seismic response of a single pile subjected to vertically propagating S waves was investigated by regarding the single pile as a one-dimensional linearly elastic beam. The time-harmonic displacement of bedrock was introduced as the vertically propagating S waves, and the horizontal dynamic impedance function of the soil was derived by the governing equations of the plane strain model. Analytical solutions for the seismic response of the single pile subjected to vertically propagating S waves were obtained by subsuming soil impedance into the governing equation of the single pile …
