Modeling seismic compression of unsaturated soils in the funicular regime [PDF]
A semi-empirical elasto-plastic constitutive model with a hyperbolic stress-strain curve was developed with the goal of predicting the seismic compression of unsaturated sands in the funicular regime of the soil-water retention curve (SWRC) during ...

Calculation of slip surface displacement in earth slopes using the limit equilibrium method [PDF]
In the present study, shear displacements were calculated for all failure surface slices in earth slopes using the limit equilibrium method. To this end, the hyperbolic shear stress-strain constitutive law was applied.

Bending and Free Vibration Analysis of Functionally Graded Plates via Optimized Non-polynomial Higher Order Theories [PDF]
Optimization concept in the context of shear deformation theories was born for the development of accurate models to study the bending problem of structures. The present study seeks to extend such an approach to the dynamic analysis of plates.

Dynamic Properties of Calcareous Sands from Urban Areas of Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi (ABD) has recently developed its national building code that mandates dynamic analysis of large structures to seismic loadings. Large strain dynamic properties such as shear modulus (G) and damping ratio (D) of local undisturbed calcareous ...
