✦ Synopsis

A non-linear model is proposed to characterize the mechanical behaviour of compact bone and has been validated by mechanical tests on bovine femoral compact bone. The model consists of a non-linear spring and a non-linear dashpot in parallel. The method of identifying the viscoelastic parameters in the model is discussed. Impact and quasi-static compressive mechanical tests have shown that the model can be applied to bone to represent its mechanical behaviour at strain rates up to 100 s -1. The directional dependence of the viscoelastic parameters for the bone are determined and discussed.

Non-linear response of the soil is investigated by comparing the spectral ratios (uphole/downhole) using weak and strong motions. Data from seven vertical arrays in Japan are analysed in this study. The frequency-dependent transfer function of soil is calculated as a ratio of the spectrum at uphole
