This study presents a large-scale shaking table investigation aimed at the development of dual, low-cost hybrid design approach for reduction seismic damage in developing countries. The introduction novel isolation strategy, defined as ‘PVC sand-wich’ lies core proposed approach. latter relates to conventional, ‘good practice’ (including steel wire mesh wall retrofit and connecting ties) that p...

The tunnels located in the shallow depths of loose saturated sand are significantly prone to liquefaction-induced uplift. Research works are, therefore, progress propose efficient techniques for mitigating In this study, 1 g physical modeling was used assess performance helical piles decreasing effects pile length, number helixes, and spacing plan view were investigated. uplift mechanism tunnel...
