Novel Methods for the Computation of Small-Strain Damping Ratios of Soils from Cyclic Torsional Shear and Free-Vibration Decay Testing

This paper illustrates two novel methods for computing the small-strain hysteretic material damping ratio, λ<sub>min</sub>, of soils from the cyclic torsional shear (TS) and computing the small-strain viscous material damping ratio, D<sub>min</sub>, from the free-vibration de...
