Microbial soil desaturation for the mitigation of earthquake liquefaction

Modeling Soil Liquefaction Hazards for Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering

Passive Site Remediation for Mitigation of Liquefaction Risk (2000-2001)

Passive site remediation is a new concept proposed for non-disruptive mitigation of liquefaction risk at developed sites susceptible to liquefaction. It is based on the concept of slow injection of stabilizing materials at the edge of a site and delivery of the stabilizer to the target location using the natural groundwater flow. Stabilizer candidates need to have long controllable gel times an...

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 ...

Chapter 2 Literature Review on Liquefaction and Ground Densification for Liquefaction Mitigation

One of the most dramatic causes of damage of structures during earthquakes has been the development of liquefaction in saturated cohesionless deposits. These deposits have tendency to densify when subjected to earthquake loading. However, when saturated, the tendency to densify causes the excess pore water pressure to increase. This, in turn, results in the effective stress of soil to decrease....
