The dynamic response of materials is important to the performance and failure resistance of many engineered systems. Experimental methods are now available to measure this response over a wide range of strain rates and temperatures. Application of these methods to the investigation of the dynamic re

β¦ Synopsis
The experimental investigation of the response of suction bucket foundation in fine sand layer under horizontal dynamic loading has been carried out. The developments of settlement and excess pore pressure of sand foundation have been mainly studied. It is shown that the sand surrounding the bucket softens or even liquefies at the first stage if the loading amplitude is over a critical value, at later stage, the bucket settles and the sand layer consolidates gradually. With the solidification of the liquefied sand layer and the settlement of the bucket, the movement of the sand layer and the bucket reach a stable state.
