A Designer’s Approach for Estimation of Nuclear-Air-Blast-Induced Ground Motion

Figure 6

Variation of error in estimated peak displacement using constrained modulus determined from different experimental techniques: (a) T3 and T4 and (b) T1, T2, T5, and T6. T1: deduced from observed ground motion; T2: calculated from seismic velocity; T3: triaxial tests: initial loading; T4: dynamic 1-D compression test: initial loading; T5: triaxial tests: reloading; T6: resonant column test.
