PREDICTING S-WAVE VELOCITIES FOR UNCONSOLIDATED SEDIMENTS AT LOW EFFECTIVE PRESSURE (2010)
This report uses the measured S-wave velocities for recovered core samples by Lee and others (2008) at the KC151 site, reconstituted sands by Zimmer (2003), and well-log data at the Walker Ridge and Alaminos Canyon sites acquired during JIP Leg II (Boswell ...

IN SITU SEISMIC MONITORING DURING CENTRIFUGE TESTS OF JACKED PILES (2006)
In this paper are presented centrifuge tests simulating the installation of jacked piles that were conducted in dense uniform fine silica sand.

DYNAMIC RESPONSE OF A PILE EMBEDDED IN A POROUS MEDIUM SUBJECTED TO PLANE SH WAVES (2005)
In this study, the frequency domain dynamic response of a pile embedded in a porous medium and subjected to SH seismic waves is investigated. The surrounding porous medium of the pile is described by Biot’s theory, while the pile embedded in the porous medium ...

CHARACTERISTICS OF VERTICAL STRONG GROUND MOTIONS FOR APPLICATIONS TO ENGINEERING DESIGN (1997)
Characteristics of vertical and horizontal component strong ground motions have been examined to reveal general trends which may be of significance to structural analyses. Recordings at both rock and deep soil sites representative of WUS showed distinctly ...
