Determining the damping factor of sedimentary rocks required for seismically designed structures
Relationships for the shear damping ratio Ds (a function of shear quality factor Qs) and modulus decay curve Gseis/Gmax as a function of shear strain for mudrocks have been developed. Field experiments to determine damping ratio and elastic moduli should be performed at frequencies as close as possi...
