9 SHAFT RESISTANCE MASSARSCH AND FELLENIUS (2008) R S = z s ż A C z s = specific impendence of soil ż = particle velocity in pile A C = contact area between soil and pile ż = t f / v s ρ (often > 12 in/sec) t f = shearing strength of soil v s = shear wave velocity ρ = mass density of soil {(ż) max 1 m/s Observed in densification studies}
10 DISSIPATION OF ENERGY WITH DISTANCE GEOMETRICAL AND MATERIAL DAMPING
11 EQUATIONS DESCRIBING ENERGY DISIPATION BORNITZ EQUATION w = w 1 (r 1 /r) n exp[-α(r r 1 )] w 1 = amplitude at known distance r 1 w = amplitude at any distance r r 1 = distance from source to point of known amplitude r = distance from source to any point n = coefficient depending on type of wave n = 1 for body waves in half-space n = 2 for body waves along surface n = 0.5 for Rayleigh waves α = coefficient of attenuation
12 N < 5 5< N < 15 15< N < 50 N > 50
13 EQUATIONS DESCRIBING ENERGY DISSIPATION PSEUDO - ATTENUATION ż = k [D/ E] -N ż = peak particle velocity k = intercept at 1 energy unit D = distance from source E = energy of source N = slope of line on log-log plot of ż vs scaled distance
