LEAP-UCD-2017 Centrifuge Test at Kyoto University
Abstract As part of the LEAP-UCD-2017 exercise, 24 centrifuge tests were conducted at 9 centrifuge facilities around the world; among them, 3 tests were carried out in the facilities of the Disaster Prevention Research Institute at Kyoto University. The main objective of the tests is to characterize the median response and uncertainty of the dynamic response of a uniform-density sloping deposit of clean sand, subjected to a ramped sinusoidal wave; this chapter introduces specific details of the model preparation, testing procedures, and achieved response. Additionally, a brief discussion related to the uncertainties in the density estimation is presented.
