Prediction models and associated uncertainty for dynamic shear modulus and damping ratio of Beijing silty clay [PDF]
Based on experimental data of normalized shear modulus and damping ratio from undisturbed silty clay within 120 m depth in the Beijing area, the Davidenkov backbone curve is used to characterize the normalized shear modulus curve, and the damping ratio ...

Traffic loading is usually simulated by single cyclic deviator stress. However, the vertical normal stress and horizontal stress acting on the soil elements are all varied cyclically under the traffic loading.

Investigation of the effects of value and modeling approach of natural damping on nonlinear responses of low rise moment-resisting steel frames [PDF]
Nonlinear time history analysis is recognized as the most appropriate tool for assessing the real behaviour of structures during seismic excitations. Validity rate of obtained results from this analysis significantly depends to the modeling, details and ...

A Damping Ratio Bound for Networks of Masses and Springs [PDF]
The damping ratio is a key performance measure in systems that can be modelled as networks of masses and springs. We derive a lower bound on this quantity that applies to such networks when the masses are subject to viscous damping. The result allows the size of the damping ratio to be understood as a function of the system parameters.
