Abstract
AbstractFor the LEAP-ASIA-2018 exercise, a centrifuge test was conducted in parallel at ten centrifuge facilities, including the University of California, Davis (UCD). The experiment consisted of a submerged clean sand profile oriented with a 5-degree slope subjected to 1 Hz ramped sine wave motions applied at the base of a rigid container. This paper explains several details of the experiment at UCD, including experiment results, implementation of high-speed cameras and GeoPIV software to measure slope deformation, and the presence of vertical accelerations due to the Coriolis effect and how the accelerations might affect model performance. In addition, this paper presents data and comparison for both conventional (Type A) and generalized (Type B) centrifuge scaling laws.
