Micromechanics of soil responses in cyclic simple shear tests
Offshore wind turbine (OWT) foundations are subjected to a combination of cyclic and dynamic loading arising from wind, wave, rotor and blade shadowing. Under cyclic loading, most soils change their characteristics including stiffness, which may cause the system natural frequency to approach the loading frequency and lead to unplanned resonance and system damage or even collapse. To investigate...
متن کاملStudies on Dynamic Character of Saturated Soft Clays through Cyclic Torsion Shear Tests
A large number of cyclic torsional shear tests on saturated soft clay under unconsolidated undrained condition have been carried out. The changing law between accumulative generalized shear strains vs. failure numbers has been analyzed and a cyclic shear strength curve has been received based on cyclic torsional shear tests. According to the test results, the criterion of saturated soft clay is...
متن کاملNumerical modelling of multi-directional earthquake loading and its effect on sand liquefaction
Earthquakes generate multi-directional ground motions, two components in the horizontal direction and one in the vertical. Nevertheless, the effect of vertical motion on site response analysis has not been the object of extensive research. The 2010/2011 Canterbury sequence of seismic events in New Zealand is a prime example among other earlier field observations strongly corroborating that the ...
متن کاملBehavior of Granular Soils under Dry and Saturated Conditions in Cyclic Torsional Shear Tests
This paper presents results from drained cyclic torsional shear tests on Toyoura sand and a residual soil under dry and saturated conditions. The relationships of shear strain, z with shear stress, z ; normalized shear stress, z z / ; vertical strain, z ; and equivalent shear modulus, Geq are compared. The investigation of granular decomposition with respect to its influence o...
متن کاملThe Behavior of Suction Bucket under Cyclic Loading in Saturated Lands
Numerical modeling was carried out to investigate the responses of suction bucket foundations under vertical cyclic loading. Numerical results were compared with centrifuge experiment results. Before the capacity of the model suction bucket to resist cyclic loading could be investigated, the static pullout capacities had to be determined. The buckets with different aspect ratio are investigated...
