LEAP-UCD-2017 Centrifuge Test at University of California, Davis
Abstract Three centrifuge experiments were performed at the University of California, Davis, for LEAP-UCD-2017. LEAP is a collaborative effort to assess repeatability of centrifuge test results and to provide data for the validation of numerical models used to predict the effects of liquefaction. The model configuration used the same geometry as the LEAP-GWU-2015 exercise: a submerged slope of Ottawa F-65 sand inclined at 5 degrees in a rigid container. This paper focuses on presenting results from the two destructive ground motions from each of the three centrifuge models. The effect of each destructive ground motion is evaluated by accelerometer recordings, pore pressure response, and lateral deformation of the soil surface. New techniques were implemented for measuring liquefaction-induced lateral deformations using five GoPro cameras and GEO-PIV software. The methods for measuring the achieved density of the as-built model are also discussed.
