Twenty-four centrifuge model tests of liquefaction and lateral spreading, performed as part of a round robin test program, are shared and compared in this archive. Please see the general report section of the published project for an overview comparison and background of all of the experiments. One document in the report (with “ReadMe” in the file name) describes the organization of the data archive. The comparisons presented in the general report section will serve as an index to help the users find individual experiments of interest. This data from 24 model tests is published as nine separate experiments in this archive (one experiment per centrifuge facility). Each experiment includes two or three model tests and each model test includes between one and three destructive shaking events. All of the tests modeled a 4 m thick deposit of Ottawa F-65 sand with a 5-degree surface slope in a rigid box. The tests covered a range of ground motion intensities and a range of relative densities to define the median response and the sensitivity of the response to relative density and shaking intensity. The nine centrifuge facilities involved in this test program included Cambridge University (UK), Ehime University (Japan), IFSTTAR (France), NCU (Taiwan), KAIST (Korea), Kyoto University (Japan), RPI (USA), UC Davis (USA), and Zhejiang University (China).

The application of acoustic ring resonator structures for the manipulation of audio frequency acoustic waves is demonstrated experimentally and via numerical simulation. Three ring resonator systems are demonstrated: a simple single ring structure that acts as a comb/notch filter, a single ring between two parallel waveguides that acts as an add-drop filter, and a sequential array of equally spaced rings that creates acoustic bandgaps. The experiments are conducted in linear waveguides using an impulse response method. The ring resonators were created via 3D printing. Finite element numerical simulations were conducted using COMSOL.more » « less
