However, it has been shown by various researchers that saturated sands exhibit a softening behavior under cyclic conditions. As a result of this behavior the surface response may be significantly affected by the existence of ground water. In this study, the effect of depth of water table on the seismic response of sand deposits is investigated.en-USseismicsandground waterground responseeffective stress-analysis1994 northridgeliquefactionearthquakeaccelerationCaliforniasismikkumyeraltı suyuzemin tepkisiefektif gerilme analizisıvılaşmadepremhızlanmaKaliforniyaEffect Of Depth Of Ground Water On The Seismic Response Of Frame Type Buildings On Sand Deposits.
