A simplified semiempirical predictive relationship for estimating permanent displacements due to earthquake-induced deviatoric deformations is presented. It utilizes a nonlinear fully coupled stick-slip sliding block model to capture the dynamic performance of an earth dam, natural slope, compacted earth fill, or municipal solid-waste landfill. The primary source of uncertainty in assessing the likely performance of an earth/waste system during an earthquake is the input ground motion. Hence, a comprehensive database containing 688 recorded ground motions is used to compute seismic displacements. A seismic displacement model is developed that captures the primary influence of the system’s yield coefficient ( ky ) , its initial fundamental period ( Ts ) , and the ground motion’s spectral acceleration at a degraded period equal to 1.5 Ts . The model separates the probability of “zero” displacement (i.e., ⩽1 cm ) occurring from the distribution of “nonzero” displacement, so that very low values of calculated...
