LEAP-ASIA-2019 Centrifuge Test Simulations of Liquefiable Sloping Ground
Numerical simulations of a liquefiable sloping ground for LEAP-ASIA-2019 centrifuge tests are presented. The simulations are performed using a pressure-dependent constitutive model implemented with the characteristics of dilatancy, cyclic mobility, and associated shear deformation. The soil model parameters are determined based on a series of stress-controlled cyclic torsional shear tests of Ottawa F-65 sand with relative density Dr = 60% during calibration phase. Computational framework for the seismic response analysis is discussed and the computed results are presented for all selected centrifuge experiments during Type-C phase. Measured time histories of these experiments are reasonably captured. It is demonstrated that the pressure-dependent constitutive model as well as the overall employed computational framework has the potential to predict the response of the liquefiable sloping ground, and subsequently realistically evaluates the performance of an equivalent soil system subjected to seismically induced liquefaction.
