... Abstract: In Japan, a slip safety factor based on an equivalent linear analysis is conventionally used to evaluate the stability of rock foundations under critical facilities in terms of the sliding motion during an earthquake. In this study, dynamic centrifugal model tests were performed...

... Abstract: Evaluation of seismic stability of critical facilities to earthquake-induced failure of rock foundations based on ground displacement is considered to be crucial. In this study, a constitutive model was developed to consider the effects of both shear and tensile failure of rock...
