ABSTRACT
There have been considerable developments in recent years in dynamic modelling techniques for geotechnical engineering. These include new shaking systems, new data recording and analysis techniques and projects involving collaboration between researchers using different modelling techniques. In the literature centrifuge test data has been used to demonstrate how the physical modelling tests may help engineers to understand seismic problems in the field and hence to help prepare remedial measures and future designs. Shaking tables both working on a centrifuge (high g) and at normal gravity (lg) have been used cooperatively to study dynamic problems in geotechnical engineering.
