Abstract: Railway track and nearby structures in the vicinity of high-speed railway are exposed to low-amplitude small-strain vibrations as high-speed railway traffic construction activities arise. In the finite element (FE) method, how to determine the stiffness tensor E is important to build a rational predicting model to analyze the settlement of track and nearby structures in the vicinity of high-speed railway. Shear modulus G and damping ratio D which will vary with shear strain amplitude are two important stiffness and damping parameters. It is found through resonant column test study that the shear modulus G of soil due to vibrations must be determined by the strain amplitude and the confining pressure, even though under small-strain (shear strain amplitude 10-6

Key words: two-parameter Davidenkov model, resonant/free-vibration column test, shear modulus, damping ratio
