Shaking table tests have been performed in this research to represent the nonlinear vibration of soft grounds due to strong earthquake motions. Special care has been taken for the design of a soil container in order to reproduce idealized horizontal shear wave propagation in the model ground. Nonlinear acceleration responses to various random motions measured in the model ground are compared with the numerical results obtained by the equivalent linear analysis widely used in engineering practice. This comparative study reveals general efficiency of the analytical technique for engineering prediction of earthquake motion of soft grounds although the analysis gives poorer prediction for smaller amplitudes involved in the random motion. ƒL[ƒ[ƒhi‰pjF - ‹LŽ–‹æ•ªF - ‹æ•ª @@@ˆÏˆõ‰ï˜_•¶W
