A new slurry-based method of preparation of specimens of sand containing fines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A new method of specimen reconstitution is presented that is appropriate for element testing of sands containing either plastic or nonplastic fines. The method allows reconstitution of homogeneous, saturated specimens of sands containing fines whose ...

Liquefaction evaluation of dam foundation soils considering overlying structure

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2015
The liquefaction analysis procedure conducted at a dam foundation associated with a layer of liquefiable sand is presented. In this case, the effects of the overlying dam and an embedded diaphragm wall on liquefaction potential of foundation soils are ...

Cyclic Liquefaction Resistance of an Alluvial Natural Sand: A Comparison between Fully and Partially Saturated Conditions

open access: yesGeotechnics, 2022
Earthquake-induced liquefaction is one of the major causes of building damage as it decreases the strength and stiffness of soil. The liquefaction resistance of soils increases significantly as the degree of saturation decreases, making soil desaturation

Unified evaluation method for soil liquefaction potential based on modern in-situ piezocone penetration tests

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2022
The cone penetration test (CPT) is a commonly used technique to identify the liquefaction of sandy soil in the world but it cannot reflect the influences of pore water pressure (pore pressure) on the liquefaction behavior. The piezocone penetration test (
