Estimation of inelastic displacement demands of flexible-based structures on soft soils (2016)
Journal Article
Lu, Y., Hajirasouliha, I., & Marshall, A. M. (2016). Estimation of inelastic displacement demands of flexible-based structures on soft soils. International Journal of Earthquake and Impact Engineering, 1(1/2), 81-97. https://doi.org/10.1504/IJEIE.2016.080034

This study aims to develop efficient tools for performance-based seismic design of soil-structure interaction (SSI) systems on soft soils. To simulate the SSI effects, linear and nonlinear 'equivalent fixed-base single-degree-of-freedom' (EFSDOF) osc...

A simplified elastic analysis of tunnel-piled structure interaction (2016)
Journal Article
Franza, A., Marshall, A. M., Haji, T., Abdelatif, A. O., Carbonari, S., & Morici, M. (2017). A simplified elastic analysis of tunnel-piled structure interaction. Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology, 61, 104-121. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tust.2016.09.008

In urban areas, engineers often need to assess tunnelling-induced displacements of piled structures and the resulting potential for damage. This paper presents an elastic study of tunnel-pile-structure interaction through Winkler-based Two-Stage Anal... Read More about A simplified elastic analysis of tunnel-piled structure interaction.

Discussion of “Observation of ground movement with existing pile groups due to tunneling in sand using centrifuge modelling” by Ittichai Boonsiri and Jiro Takemura (2016)
Journal Article
Marshall, A. M., & Franza, A. (2017). Discussion of “Observation of ground movement with existing pile groups due to tunneling in sand using centrifuge modelling” by Ittichai Boonsiri and Jiro Takemura. Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 35(1), 535-539. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10706-016-0083-x

This discussion aims to highlight the underlying cause of several aspects of the greenfield settlement data presented by Boonsiri and Takemura (Geotech Geol Eng 33(3):621–640, 2015). The discussion considers, for the geotechnical centrifuge tests tha...

Interpretation of cone penetration test data in layered soils using cavity expansion analysis (2016)
Journal Article
Mo, P.-Q., Marshall, A. M., & Yu, H.-S. (2017). Interpretation of cone penetration test data in layered soils using cavity expansion analysis. Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 143(1), Article 04016084. https://doi.org/10.1061/%28ASCE%29GT.1943-5606.0001577

Cavity expansion theory plays an important role in many geotechnical engineering problems, including the cone penetration test (CPT). One of the challenges of interpreting CPT data is the delineation of interfaces between soil layers and the identifi...
