A Multivariate Adaptive Regression Spline Approach for Prediction of Maximum Shear Modulus and Minimum Damping Ratio

open access: yesEngineering Journal, 2012
This study uses multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) for determination of maximum shear modulus (G max ) and minimum damping ratio (ξ min ) of synthetic reinforced soil. MARS employs confining pressure (σ, psi), rubber (r, %) and sand (s, %) as input variables. The outputs of the MARS are G max and ξ min .
