... the influence of width to height ratio on the acceleration response and deformation modes. The two reduced-scale models had the same height of H = 1 m, but with different widths of W = 1.6 m and 1.1 m. The models were designed according to similitude relationships, and were constructed using...

... accelerations, wave frequencies and plastic slope displacements on the horizontal acceleration response of the slope. A comparative study on the crest response behavior suggested that the tests using pulse loads give useful insights into the dynamic behavior of soil structures subjected to earthquake loads...
