Liquefaction Analysis

Soil-liquefaction-related hazards can damage structures or lead to an extensive loss of life and property. Therefore, the stability and safety of structures against soil liquefaction are essential for evaluation in earthquake design. In practice, the simplified liquefaction analysis procedure associated with numerical simulation analysis is the most used approach for evaluating the behavior of structures or the effectiveness of mitigation plans. First, the occurrence of soil liquefaction is evaluated using the simplified procedure. If soil liquefaction occurs, the resulting structural damage or the following mitigation plan is evaluated using the numerical simulation analysis. Rational and comparable evaluation results between the simplified liquefaction analysis procedure and the numerical simulation analysis are achieved by ensuring that the liquefaction constitutive model used in the numerical simulation has a consistent liquefaction resistance with the simplified liquefaction analysis procedure. In this study, two frequently used liquefaction constitutive models (Finn model and UBCSAND model) were calibrated by fitting the liquefaction triggering curves of most used simplified liquefaction analysis procedures (NCEER, HBF, JRA96, and T-Y procedures) in Taiwan via FLAC program. In addition, the responses of two calibrated models were compared and discussed to provide guidelines for selecting an appropriate liquefaction constitutive model in future projects.

The selection of a rubber compound has a determining influence on the final characteristics of rubber-metal springs. Therefore, the correct selection of a rubber compound is a key factor for development of rubber-metal vibration isolation springs with required characteristics. The procedure for the selection of the rubber compound for vibration isolation of rubber-metal springs has been proposed, so that the rubber-metal elements have the necessary characteristics, especially in terms of deflection. The procedure is based on numerical simulation of spring deflection with Bergström-Boyce constitutive model in virtual experiment, with a goal to determine which parameters of the constitutive model will lead to spring required deflection. The procedure was verified by case study defined to select rubber compound for a rubber–metal spring used in railway engineering.

Concrete is a typical kind of rate sensitive material. In this paper, the concrete specimens were tested in the SHPB experiment system. Based on H-J-C constitutive model, the SHPB experiment was simulated by LS-DANY. The stress-strain curves which were gat from numerical simulation in the LS-DANY were compared with the stress-strain curves which were gat from SHPB. The results showed that the H-J-C constitutive could simulate the dynamic characteristics of concrete both under room temperature. The result also showed that the concrete was strain rate sensitive. Based on the numerical simulation, the stress wave in the SHPB system was studied. The research of the numerical simulation showed that the stress waves tended to become stable after several oscillations in the incident bar. At the same time, stress wave of elements in r=0 (The distance of elements to the axis was 0) were bigger than the stress wave of r=0.5R (The distance to the axis was 0.5R) and r=R (The distance to the axis was R).
