Shaking table testing of geotechnical models
International Journal of Physical Modelling in Geotechnics, 2002Shaking tables provide one means of obtaining data from physical models of geotechnical systems under simulated earthquake loading. While there may be challenges in ensuring exact scaling of all aspects of a geotechnical system between prototype and model, the large size of the shaking table models does give a good basis for validation of numerical ...

Shaking Table Testing of Adobe Masonry Structures
2021This chapter presents the seismic simulation systems (shaking tables) as essential resources for experimental research on adobe masonry structures. An overview of selected relevant shaking tables existing in laboratories around the world gives an idea of the broad testing scope possible with this type of equipment.

Shake table testing of bookcase – partition wall systems
Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 2004This paper describes the seismic (shake table) tests conducted on bookcase – partition wall systems. These nonstructural building components can be considered acceleration sensitive (or motion sensitive) rather than drift sensitive. The shake table floor motions used for the seismic testing are described in a companion paper. One bookcase fully loaded

Improvements for seismometers testing on shake table
2019 14th IEEE International Conference on Electronic Measurement & Instruments (ICEMI), 2019This study aims to design fixtures used on the horizontal and vertical shake tables to improve measuring accuracy for the seismometer under test. Based on ANSYS, the model analysis is applied with finite element method. After multiple calculations and calibrations, optimization models are finalized, and then material objects are manufactured basing on ...

Shake table model testing and its application
The Structural Design of Tall and Special Buildings, 2007AbstractThis paper presents a study of shake table testing for aseismic design of structure systems. Two reinforced concrete structure models of different scales were used first to implement and demonstrate the similitude concept using available testing equipment.

Shaking Table Test of Rock Slopes
2016As it is known to all that the most direct and reliable way to study the response characteristics of rock slope seismic action is to conduct field test through seismic array network, which could intuitively reflect the motion features and seismic dynamic characteristics of rock slopes so as to provide precious original data for the future work.

Shake table tests on prestressed concrete frames
Materials and Structures, 1998Results from small scale models of prestressed concrete frames, tested by a shake table simulating earthquake forces are presented. The primary curves (horizontal force-displacement relationships) and the hysteretic loops are determined experimentally. Concrete strength is approximately between 32 and 84 MPa, and two types of effective prestresses are ...

Shaking table testing of retrofitted 3-storey building
2013The paper investigates the seismic performance of an existing 3-storey structure, built in the 70's. Not complying with capacity design principles, the structure is prone to soft-storey collapse, calling for retrofit through addition of shear walls. Two alternatives are considered with respect to the foundation: (a) conventional design; and (b) rocking
