To get you the specific information you need, could you clarify: g., on tunnels vs. monopiles)?
The maximum input acceleration of an earthquake plays a crucial role in determining both maximum and residual lining forces.
Research investigates the lateral behavior of large-diameter monopiles in sand. Findings emphasize that lateral deformation is highly sensitive to the pile diameter ( ) and loading height. An embedded length of is identified as an effective length for stability. ulascilingir
Cilingir's research frequently employs centrifugal testing to simulate real-world earthquake conditions (up to 100 G-level) to observe failure mechanisms in soil and embedded structures, which are later validated by FEA models.
Studies indicate that TDA, when used as a compressible layer, can be effective in reducing overburden loads on buried structures, though it may also cause additional acceleration amplification at the surface. 3. Key Methodology: Centrifuge Modelling To get you the specific information you need,

Shallow tunnels in sand, particularly those with square cross-sections, are highly vulnerable to seismic activity. Increased depth can lead to higher seismic-induced loads, such as increased hoop forces and bending moments, due to interaction with the surrounding soil. often used in waterfronts
These structures, often used in waterfronts, face complex seismic demands. Research shows that seismic loads can significantly increase both maximum displacement and bending moments, highlighting the need for proper anchoring and advanced seismic design.
