Schnabel et al. [2] developed a method for one-dimensional ground response analysis using equivalent linear approach, which was implemented in widely accepted ground response software SHAKE.
Also, it is important to consider the effect of multi-directional, or the three-dimensional ground motion.
However, full time-domain approaches involve large computation times, particularly where three-dimensional ground models are required.
A frequency-dependant amplification function is derived for the waves traveling along the backfill using well-established one-dimensional ground response analysis theory.
The seismic response of the Ganga sand deposit has been carried out using one-dimensional ground response analysis adopting (1) linear elastic approach and (2) equivalent linear approach.
The model appears to be well validated against analytical solutions and a three-dimensional ground freezing experiment under high seepage flow velocity conditions.
We calculated the temporal evolution of three-dimensional ground deformation by computing averages over the first 10 days and the last 10 days of the time window, and subtracted the latter from the former.
This paper presents a three-dimensional ground penetrating radar (GPR) case study of contemporary dunes from southern Libya that may serve as an analogue for oil and gas reservoirs in aeolian systems.
Site effects are evaluated by means of equivalent stochastic non-linear one-dimensional ground responses analysis, performed for a set of stratified soil profile units properly designed to cope with the soil site conditions of MAL region.
The study further establishes that the simpler two-dimensional ground coverage ratio (GCR), which is readily available in the planning circle, can be used to predict the area's average pedestrian level urban ventilation performance of the city.
The principal purpose of the study was to investigate the ability of two-dimensional ground penetrating radar (GPR) to rapidly characterize porosity variability in the karst Biscayne aquifer in south Florida.
