3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is damping in soils?
Think about energy dissipation.
Name one type of damping related to internal friction.
Relate it to internal forces in soil.
What type of damping occurs due to internal friction within soil?
Think of the energy absorption within the soil.
True or False: Radiation damping involves energy absorbed by soil.
Consider the location where energy is lost.
How would an increase in soil density influence the damping ratio? Discuss the implications for seismic behavior.
Evaluate the relation between density and internal energy absorption.
In a project involving a soft clay site for a proposed building, what are some considerations regarding viscous damping and how would you mitigate risks?
Think about how soft clay behaves under loading conditions.
