Estimating maximum shear modulus (G) using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)

open access: yesSoil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering, 2022
Realistic estimation of soil behavior is dependent on considering very small and small strain domains. Lengthy formulas proposed in the literature have limited predictive power for estimation of maximum shear modulus, G0. The aim of this study is to overcome this drawback.

Research on Comparison of the Maximum Dynamic Shear Modulus Test

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2012
AbstractDynamic soil modulus and damping ratio are the two basic parameters to describe dynamic deformation characteristics of the soil. There are three ways to obtain soil dynamics parameters i.e. field test, laboratory test, and calculating empirical. Silt loam samples were collected from Dongying area in this study.

Topological design of microstructures of cellular materials for maximum bulk or shear modulus

Computational Materials Science, 2011
This paper presents a new approach to designing periodic microstructures of cellular materials. The method is based on the bidirectional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO) technique. The optimization problem is formulated as finding a micro-structural topology with the maximum bulk or shear modulus under a prescribed volume constraint.

Influence of non-plastic fines content on maximum shear modulus of granular materials

open access: yesSoils and Foundations, 2016
Abstract Resonant column tests were conducted on clean Hostun sand and Hostun sand mixed with 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% fines (particle size smaller than 0.075 mm) to assess the influences of void ratio ( e ), effective confining stress ( p ′) and fines content ( f c ) on the maximum shear modulus, G max .

A practical method for estimating maximum shear modulus of cemented sands using unconfined compressive strength

Journal of Applied Geophysics, 2017
Abstract The composition of naturally cemented deposits is very complicated; thus, estimating the maximum shear modulus (Gmax, or shear modulus at very small strains) of cemented sands using the previous empirical formulas is very difficult. The purpose of this experimental investigation is to evaluate the effects of particle size and cement type on ...

Evaluation of liquefaction resistance of sand by maximum shear modulus

Journal of the Chinese Institute of Engineers, 1994
Abstract Laboratory tests and in‐situ seismic cone penetration tests are conducted to evaluate the liquefaction resistance of Lanyang sandy soils. Resonant column tests and cyclic torsional shear tests are performed on remolded samples to establish the relationship between the maximum shear modulus and the liquefaction resistance.

Field Investigation of Maximum Dynamic Shear Modulus of Clay Deposit Using Seismic Piezocone

International Journal of Civil Engineering, 2018
The maximum dynamic shear modulus (Gmax) of soils is a fundamental parameter used in the evaluation of soil dynamic behavior and seismic design in geotechnical engineering. In this study, seismic piezocone (SCPTU) and resonant column (RCT) test methods were adopted for measuring soil shear wave velocity (Vs) in Jiangsu Province of China.

Effect of consolidation ratios on maximum dynamic shear modulus of sands

Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Vibration, 2005
The dynamic shear modulus (DSM) is the most basic soil parameter in earthquake or other dynamic loading conditions and can be obtained through testing in the field or in the laboratory. The effect of consolidation ratios of the maximum DSM for two types of sand is investigated by using resonant column tests.

Maximum shear modulus anisotropy of rooted soils

Géotechnique
The maximum shear modulus (G0(ij)) of rooted soils is crucial for assessing the deformation and liquefaction potential of vegetated infrastructures under seismic loading conditions. However, no data or theory are available to account for the anisotropy of G0(ij) of rooted soils.
