<p>The paper demonstrates that whereas often in seismic geotechnical design it is not realistically feasible to design with ample factor of safety against failure as is done in static design, an &ldquo;engineering&rdquo; apparent seismic factor of safety less ...

<p>The response of surface foundations to large overturning moments is studied under undrained conditions. Rigid circular, strip, and rectangular footings of various aspect ratios are considered, with the soil modeled as an inelastic homogeneous deposit, characterized ...

<p>This paper investigates experimentally the effectiveness of a new seismic design philosophy, in which soil failure is &ldquo;utilized&rdquo; to protect the superstructure. A physical model of a simple bridge pier is used as an example. Two alternatives ...
