Comparisons with existing literature curves. G\G₀(γ) and D(γ) curves for CL_SM eg-unit (a and b, c and d) ± Darendeli conference levels (adapted from Yokota et al.²⁶), for a mean confining effective pressure σ’ of about 200 kPa, compared respectively with Vucetic and Dobry³⁹ and Darendeli and Stokoe⁴⁰, confining effective pressure σ’ = 200 kPa; G\G₀(γ) and D(γ) curves for SM_SM eg-unit (e and f) ± Darendeli conference levels (adapted from Yokota et al.²⁶), for a mean confining effective pressure σ’ of 180 kPa, compared with Seed and Idriss⁵⁶ curves – mean, upper and lower bound.
