Develop a Greater Understanding of How and Why Surface Wave Testing Works Using
examples and case studies directly drawn from the authors' experience, Surface Wave …

Seismic attenuation and the associated quality factor (Q) have long been studied in various
sub-disciplines of seismology, ranging from observational and engineering seismology to …

Surface wave tests are non-invasive seismic techniques that can be used to determine the
low-strain dynamic properties of a soil deposit. In the conventional interpretation of these …

In this work, a simplified analytical framework based on the multiple scattering theory is
proposed to model the structure–soil–structure interaction of buildings excited by antiplane …

This article presents results from a laboratory investigation into the dynamic characteristics
of reconstituted and undisturbed cohesive soils by means of resonant-column tests. In …

Small-strain stiffness and damping ratio are important parameters for modelling the dynamic
behaviour of soils. In particular, the experimental evaluation of the damping ratio is …

The use of surface wave measurements to derive an S-wave velocity profile of the
subsurface has become a widely applied procedure; however, their potential use to …

Outstanding advances have been achieved on Earthquake Geotechnical Engineering and
Microzonation in the last decade mostly due to the increase in the recorded instrumental in …

Different positions exist about the physical interpretation of horizontal to vertical spectral
ratios (HVSR) deduced from ambient vibrations. Two of them are considered here: one is …

抄録 The experimental results reported in this paper were obtained performing monotonic,
cyclic and dynamic torsional shear tests on a stiff Italian clay in the pre-failure stress-strain …
