Shaking Table Tests on a New Antislide Pile under Earthquakes [PDF]
A retaining form of a shock-absorbing antislide pile is proposed for slope engineering. A flexible material (shock-absorption layer) is filled in front of an ordinary antislide pile, which is used to absorb a large amount of seismic energy, thereby decreasing the transmission of seismic energy to the antislide pile.

Accuracy Assessment of Shake Table Device on Strong Earthquake Output [PDF]
In order to avoid unexpected damage of structural specimens in the test, at the beginning, a signal with small amplitude is adopted to input the shake table device to gain the transfer function and corresponding drive signal, and then a strong earthquake output can be reproduced by amplifying the drive signal proportionally.
