Centrifuge Modelling of Vertical and Horizontal Drains to Mitigate Earthquake-Induced Liquefaction

This paper reports the results of dynamic centrifuge tests carried out on sandy models alternatively equipped with vertical or horizontal drains. The main aim experimentation was to investigate use drains mitigate liquefaction susceptibility deposits and validate their applicability as a remediation technique applicable in urban industrial areas protect existing buildings from liquefaction. assessment validation were by comparing seismic behavior treated that untreated model
