Performance of an earthquake motion simulator for a small geotechnical centrifuge
An electrohydraulic servocontrolled slip table system for earthquake motion simulation in a 15 g-ton geotechnical centrifuge is in operation at the University of Colorado. The performance of the system is illustrated here by measures of the slip table system response for a specific operating condition and by results from a model embankment experiment. It is shown that reasonable simulations of specific prototype-horizontal earthquake motions can be achieved using a signal correction technique which incorporates a measure of the system frequency response.
