摘要: With funding from the U.S. Department of Energy, the University of Nevada, Reno, in collaboration with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and faculty and technicians in UNR's Center for Civil Engineering Earthquake Research, has designed and built an innovative, large-scale facility capable of testing soil-structure interactions. Containing a soil box that can hold up to 350 tons of soil, the system can introduce motion up to 1 g on soil and any structures that have been built within or atop it. Known as the Large-Scale Laminar Soil Box System, it joins the existing four large-scale shake tables at the university's world-renowned earthquake engineering testing complex. The soil box is a one-of-a-kind testing facility, says Ian Buckle, Ph.D., M.ASCE, the soil box's principal investigator and a professor in UNR's Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering. "The facility will be used to advance the state-of-the art in soil-structure interaction using larger-scale structures than previously possible," Buckle says.
