Abstract

Earthquakes are often difficult to predict and have the potential to cause great damage to people and property, most of which are related to the collapse of the soil-structure system and geotechnical problems. Currently, to evaluate the dynamic behavior of structures and ground under the effect of earthquake load experimentally, there are two main methods: the 1-G shaking table model experiment (1-G shaking table test) and the centrifuge model experiment (geo-centrifuge test). Different from the 1-G shaking table test, the model is accelerated to an appropriate level in the centrifuge test. Thus, the self-weight of the soil and structure can be increased correspondingly at the appropriate rate, and the behavior of the soil-structure system can be described similar to reality.
