Liquefaction Hazard assessment using Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio of Microtremor
In this paper, the spectral ratio of mmicrotremor, HSVR, is presented for estimating the liquefaction potential of layered soil in the coastal area of the Persian Gulf, which consists of a hard sandstone layer situated between two saturated sandy layers. The surface layer is thin, with a thickness between 2 and 5 meters. The purpose of this paper is to identify the relation between the liquefac...
متن کاملSettlements and Consolidation Rates under Embankments in a Soft Soil with Vertical Drains
In this paper, a study was carried out in order to estimate settlements and consolidation rates under embankments constructed on Moroccan soft soils. Settlement measurements in several embankments in High Speed Railway project between two Moroccan cities, Tangier and Assilah, were analyzed. The objective of this study is to estimate settlement values and settlement rates, with sufficient prec...
متن کاملInvestigation of Soil Amplification in North Cyprus
In this study, soil characteristics were investigated using four well-located earthquakes recorded by six accelerometers located in North Cyprus. The amplification values obtained according to the soil features were mapped in accordance with different frequencies using horizontal to vertical spectral ratio method. The dominant period values of the units below the station locations were calculat...
متن کاملImprovement of soft clays using vacuum-assisted consolidation method
In this study, the analytical modeling of one-dimensional consolidation by vertical drains with vacuum preloading considering both vertical and horizontal drainage is presented. In this method, the total degree of consolidation based on excess pore water pressure dissipation is related to the time factor (Th), drain configuration and anisotropic soil permeability. The analytical predictions are...
متن کاملComparison of Radial Consolidation Behavior of Clay under Three Types of Cyclic Loading
Vertical drains and stone columns which have been used in infrastructure construction for highways, ports, coastal regions, etc., provide significant benefits for improving soil characteristics such as reducing the drainage length and accelerating the consolidation process. So the investigation of the radial consolidation is inevitable. Soils may be subjected to cyclic loading such as silos, ta...
