Learning from the Mexican Earthquake of September 19, 1985: In-situ Determination of Dynamic Soil Characteristics

这项研究计划，其中涉及合作之间的 马里兰州大学和墨西哥国立自治大学 （UNAM），将利用随机递减技术来确定 土在不同应变水平下的阻尼特性 地震记录 现场确定阻尼特性的能力 将允许更可靠地计算现场反应， 地震荷载

This research program, which involves collaboration between the University of Maryland and the Universidad Nacional Autonama de Mexico (UNAM), will utilize the Random Decrement Technique to determine the damping properties of soil at different strain levels using measured seismic records. The ability to determine damping properties in-situ will permit a more reliable calculation to be made of site response to earthquake loading.
