This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthquake-induced soil liquefaction (liquefaction) is a leading cause of earthquake damage worldwide. Liquefaction is often described in the literature as the phenomena of seismic generation of excess porewater pressures and consequent softening of granular soils. Many regions in the United States have been witness to liquefaction and its consequences, not just those in the west that people associate with earthquake hazards. Past damage and destruction caused by liquefaction underline the importance of accurate assessments of where liquefaction is likely and of what the consequences of liquefaction may be. Such assessments are needed to protect life and safety and to mitigate economic, environmental, and societal impacts of liquefaction in a cost-effective manner. Assessment methods exist, but methods to assess the potential for liquefaction triggering are more mature than are those to predict liquefaction consequences, and the earthquake engineering community wrestles with the differences among the various assessment methods for both liquefaction triggering and consequences. State of the Art and Practice in the Assessment of Earthquake-Induced Soil Liquefaction and Its Consequences evaluates these various methods, focusing on those developed within the past 20 years, and recommends strategies to minimize uncertainties in the short term and to develop improved methods to assess liquefaction and its consequences in the long term. This report represents a first attempt within the geotechnical earthquake engineering community to consider, in such a manner, the various methods to assess liquefaction consequences.

Book Cyclic behaviour and liquefaction potential of silty sand  Experimental and numerical investigations

Download or read book Cyclic behaviour and liquefaction potential of silty sand Experimental and numerical investigations written by Abdulaziz Osman Abdelkadr and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study experimental and numerical investigations have been carried out with the emphasis on studying the behaviour and liquefaction state of typical silty sand sampled from the Mekelle area in Ethiopia under monotonic and cyclic undrained loadings. Experiments have been carried out to measure the pore pressure accumulation, deformation characteristics and related effective stress paths. A numerical model was then used to simulate the behaviour and liquefaction state associated with the changes in the stress-strain-pore pressure levels by means of the finite element method (FEM) using the FE code Tochnog (Tochnog Professional Company 2021).

Book Cyclic Stress strain and Liquefaction Characteristicsof Sands

Download or read book Cyclic Stress strain and Liquefaction Characteristicsof Sands written by Adolfo Alarcon-Guzman and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liquefaction of saturated sand and silty sand deposits has been recognized as a major cause of damage during earthquakes. However, in spite of many research studies during the past two decades, there are still conflicting opinions on critical aspects of the phenomenon of soil liquefaction, including the definition of the term "liquefaction." For these reasons, a research program on the behavior of cohesionless soils under cyclic loading was initiated at Purdue University. An important effort was devoted to delineate and understand the physical factors controlling the response of cohesionless soils to cyclic loading and consequently, the factors involved in the different phenomena which have been described with the term "liquefaction" such as steady-state flow, a condition of zero effective stress, or cumulative residual strains due to cyclic loading. A new hybrid resonant column/torsional shear apparatus was designed and built as a part of this research program. The new apparatus permits the determination of dynamic soil properties on a single solid or hollow cylinder specimen over the entire range of shear strain amplitudes of engineering interest, i.e. from 10('-4)% to 10%. Torsional shear tests were performed with the new apparatus on reconstituted specimens of Ottawa 20-30 sand. Among other things, it was found that: (a) the maximum shear modulus, G(, max), is relatively insensitive to important factors affecting the undrained behavior of sands such as stress ratio (and hence fabric), stress history, and cyclic prestraining. Consequently, a direct correlation between G(, max) and liquefaction potential is not possible; (b) if staged testing includes the determination of shear moduli by means of resonant column tests, which imply the application of a considerable number of cycles, it can lead to significant overestimations of shear modulus for sands with no prior cyclic strain history even at shear strain amplitudes as low as 1.1 x 10('-2)%; and (c) at a given rela.
