Many cranes were damaged in the Kobe docks in the January 1995 earthquake. In particular, repeated impact marks on the concrete pavement of the wharf indicated that one crane rocked on its wheels, at the same time as the earthquake shaking and the pr

We present experimental data and a model for the low-velocity (subsonic, 0–1000 m/s) penetration of brittle materials by both solid and hollow (i.e., coring) penetrators. The experiments show that penetration is proportional to momentum/frontal are

In response to an urgent need for field data from instrumented liquefaction sites, the U.S. Geological Survey in 1982 selected and instrumented a site in southern California called the Wildlife site. Two accelerometers (one at ground surface and one

This note compares the decay of end effects in anti-plane shear for a semi-infinite elastic strip under a self-equilibrated system of concentrated end-loads with the corresponding decay for a smoothly distributed self-equilibrated load.

La Villita is a 60 m high earth and rockfill dam located 350 km southwest of Mexico City, Mexico. Since its construction the dam has been subjected to six major earthquakes, of which five are believed to be responsible for significant localized defor

Centrifugal technique can be applied to the model tests of bearing capacity, earth pressure, anchor pullout, etc. in sand. In this method, the soil mechanics law of similarity is satisfied by performing the model tests in the centrifugal field. Howev
