LIQUEFACTION COUNTERMEASURE FOR SOIL STRUCTURE USING LATTICE-FRAME-REINFORCEMENT-SHEET

Simplified model for evaluating soil liquefaction potential using CPTU

Decision Tree Approach for Soil Liquefaction Assessment

In the current study, the performances of some decision tree (DT) techniques are evaluated for postearthquake soil liquefaction assessment. A database containing 620 records of seismic parameters and soil properties is used in this study. Three decision tree techniques are used here in two different ways, considering statistical and engineering points of view, to develop decision rules. The DT ...

Soil Liquefaction Hazard Zonation Map for Kordkuy County, Golsetan Province Using Model SWM

Liquefaction is one of the most determinant factors in the collapse of transportation infrastructures. This is especially true for roads and railroads located on saturated, fine-sand substrates under seismic conditions. The damage and human casualties resulting from liquefaction highlight the importance of understanding and mapping this phenomenon. Soil liquefaction occurs as a natural hazard i...

Evaluation of Liquefaction Potential of Soil Using Genetic Programming

Liquefaction of soil is one of the major causes for the significant damages to the buildings, lifeline systems and harbor facilities caused by the earthquakes. At present artificial intelligence techniques such as artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) based models are found to be more efficient compared to statistical methods. The present study discusses about the eva...

Liquefaction of Heterogeneous Soil: Centrifuge Study

A series of centrifuge liquefaction tests have been conducted at C-CORE’s geotechnical centrifuge facility: two on variable soil and one on uniform soil deposits. A single storied frame structure resting on two strip footings was also placed on that soil deposit. Experimental results such as accelerations, excess pore water pressures (EPWP) and settlements were monitored throughout the tests. R...
