Chapter 5 Liquefaction Analyses of Aggregate Pier Foundation System Using Numerical Modeling
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The models that were analyzed using FLAC version 4.0 (FLAC, 2000) are shown on Figure 5.1. The models have different soil types: loose silty sand with 20% fines content (Figures 5.1a and 5.1b), soft clay (Figure 5.1c), and silt (Figure 5.1d). Hence, the determination of the parameters is different for each model. The following sections discuss the determination of the parameters used in the analyses, with details are presented in Appendix A.

Impact of Micropiles Installation on Liquefaction Potential of Saturated Silty Sand Using Numerical Method
This paper investigates the effect of micropile installation into saturated sandy soil by means of finite element method. The obtained results from numerical modeling are compared with the received data from the site. The validation of software has been done by simulating standard penetration test. The effect of some changes in spacing (3m, 1.6m and 0.8m) and injection pressure (1cm, 2.5cm, 5cm...
متن کاملFinite Difference Numerical Evaluation of Liquefaction with Effective Stress Method and Numerical Estimation of Liquefaction in Bandar Abbas’s Mosque Project (Case Study)
Introduction Estimation of Liquefaction is one of the main objectives in geotechnical engineering. For this purpose, several numerical and experimental methods have been proposed. An important stage to predict the liquefaction is the prediction of excess pore water pressure at a given point. In general, there are two important methods for soil dynamics analyses, fully coupled effective stress ...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of liquefaction susceptibility of soil interacting by single pile
Previous case histories have shown that soil liquefaction severely damaged many structures supported on pile foundations during earthquakes. As a result, evaluating the potential for instability is an important consideration for the safe and resistant design of deep foundation against earthquakes. In this study, the liquefaction susceptibility of saturated sand interacting by single concrete pi...
