Liquefaction Risk Assessment: Evaluation of Three Statistical Models
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 1996One approach to liquefaction risk assessment is based on a comparison of the earthquake and soil parameters for the site under study to those known to have either caused or not caused liquefaction at other sites during earlier earthquakes. In this study, three statistical models for liquefaction risk assessment are evaluated and compared.

A hypothesis for mitigation of risk of liquefaction
Géotechnique, 2003INTRODUCTION Liquefaction of sandy soils during earthquakes is a cause for concern as it may lead to disastrous consequences, such as significant structural damage and loss of life. Considerable advances have been made in recent years in the area of numerical analysis of soil liquefaction.

Risk Analysis of Gas Turbines for Natural Gas Liquefaction
Volume 5: Industrial and Cogeneration; Microturbines and Small Turbomachinery; Oil and Gas Applications; Wind Turbine Technology, 2010Procurement of process plant equipment involves decisions based not only on an economic agenda but also on long term plant capability, which in turn depends on equipment reliability. As the greater global community raises environmental concerns and pushes for economic reform, a tool is evermore required for specific and critical selection of plant ...

Risk-based liquefaction potential evaluation using standard penetration tests
Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 2000In this paper, a new approach is presented for developing a liquefaction limit state function, which defines a boundary that separates liquefaction from no-liquefaction occurrence. The new approach is developed using a database consisting of 243 field liquefaction performance cases at sites where standard penetration tests (SPT) had been conducted ...

Direct coal liquefaction safety risks: Feedstock production and transportation
Energy, 1985Abstract We identify major factors resulting in serious injury and loss of life during coal mining and shipment necessary to supply a hypothetical 1-quad/yr direct coal liquefaction industry with feedstock and fuel. Regional siting of direct coal liquefaction processing facilities, mine type, and coal transport mode would all govern the magnitude of ...

The Liquefaction Risk Analysis of Fine Sand Filling Subgrade
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2011It is signality for the Yangtse River estuary fine sand filling the highway subgrade which accounting for the lacking of filler and protecting along the line environment. Experiment results indicate that the sand has high strength, low compressibility, and good water stability.

Simplified Approach for Liquefaction Risk Assessment of Transportation Systems: Preliminary Outcomes
2020In the present study, a strategy to assess liquefaction risk of road infrastructures has been proposed, as combination of liquefaction hazard, infrastructures vulnerability and exposure of transportation network. The proposed methodology includes a capacity analysis of the road network performed on both pre- and post-liquefaction scenarios to evaluate ...

Regulating Liquefaction Risk for Residential Land Development
Engineering Geology and Geotechnics: Building for the Future, Proceedings of the Conference EUROENGEO 2024Management of natural hazard risks, such as liquefaction, has been a grey area for New Zealand’s residential land development sector. The “February 2011 Christchurch Earthquake” – second most populated city in New Zealand- was one such event. The earthquake paired with significant liquefaction saw over 400,000tonnes of silt brought up affecting over ...
