JVH02: Centrifuge Test of Buried Water Reservoir - Rotated Reservoir Orientation

The JVH02 centrifuge model test examined the dynamic response of a buried water reservoir in a rotated configuration. The soil profile consisted of one layer of uniform medium-dense dry sand. The model was shaken using a suite of 6 broadband earthquake motions at three different reservoir water levels. The model and model structure were heavily instrumented to track the response of the soil-water-structure system. The model reservoir was placed at a shallow embedment depth with a 30 degree relative rotation to the model container (i.e. the model was subject to two-dimensional shaking).
