Quaternary faulting in the central Paris basin: Evidence for coseismic rupture and liquefaction

, 2013
We describe new evidence of Quaternary faulting observable in large outcrop exposures (trenches and carries) near Romilly-sur-Seine in the centre of Paris basin. Coeval normal or reverse faults affect sand, marl and gravel units that also expose liquefaction features.

Assessing Susceptibility to Soil Liquefaction Using the Standard Penetration Test (SPT)—A Case Study from the City of Portoviejo, Coastal Ecuador [PDF]

Land, 2022
The city of Portoviejo in coastal Ecuador was severely affected during the 16 April 2016, Pedernales earthquake (Mw 7.8). Various coseismic liquefaction phenomena occurred, inducing lateral spreading, sand boils, ground subsidence, and sinkholes in soils

Detection of Liquefaction Phenomena from the 2017 Pohang (Korea) Earthquake Using Remote Sensing Data

Remote Sensing, 2019
On 15 November 2017, liquefaction phenomena were observed around the epicenter after a 5.4 magnitude earthquake occurred in Pohang in southeast Korea. In this study, we attempted to detect areas of sudden water content increase by using SAR (synthetic ...

Liquefaction phenomena associated with the Emilia earthquake sequence of May–June 2012 (Northern Italy) [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
In this paper we present the geological effects induced by the 2012 Emilia seismic sequence in the Po Plain. Extensive liquefaction phenomena were observed over an area of ~ 1200 km2 following the 20 May, ML 5.9 and 29 May, ML 5.8 mainshocks; both ...

Tracking surface and subsurface deformation associated with groundwater dynamics following the 2019 Mirpur earthquake

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023
The Mirpur Mw 5.8 earthquake on September 24, 2019, produced extensive liquefaction-induced surface deformation (LISD) in the surrounding villages. Due to the complexity of seismic hazards and the occurrence of their effects on a large spatial scale, the

An Experimental Investigation of the Liquefaction Resilience of Dual Row Retaining Walls Using Centrifuge Modeling [PDF]

, 2022
Dual row retaining walls can be used as embankment structures and coastal defense against wave or even tsunami loads. However, their resiliency to a preceding earthquake and liquefaction of the foundation soil is not well understood.

NW-dipping versus SE-dipping causative faults of the 1783 M7.1 Southern Calabria (Italy) earthquake: The contribution from the analysis of the coseismic hydrological changes

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The 1783 Mw7.1 Southern Calabria (Italy) earthquake originated a remarkable number of observations of hydrological changes (variations of flow in springs and streams, liquefaction, changes in water temperature) that occurred in different localities.
