Constitutive model for thixotropic fluid considering phase characteristics of liquefaction of saturated sand

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
Reasonable evaluation of the property evolution of saturated sand during liquefaction and the dynamic response under cyclic loading is the key to solve the problem of large deformation of liquefied sand.

Preconditioning and triggering of offshore slope failures and turbidity currents revealed by most detailed monitoring yet at a fjord-head delta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Rivers and turbidity currents are the two most important sediment transport processes by volume on Earth. Various hypotheses have been proposed for triggering of turbidity currents offshore from river mouths, including direct plunging of river discharge,

Simulation of the Potential Liquification of Puger Sand Soil on a Small Scale in the Laboratory

open access: yesRekayasa Sipil
Puger is a nearshore area in the Jember district. On the Indonesian liquefaction zone atlas map, Puger is a high liquefaction zone. Liquefaction can occur when water-saturated soil loses its strength and behaves like a liquid due to seismic vibrations ...

A Simple One-Scale Constitutive Model for Static Liquefaction of Sand-Silt Mixtures

open access: yesLatin American Journal of Solids and Structures
Instability of liquefaction is one of the major reasons which results in the failure of earth structure such as dam. The present study focuses on the simulation of static liquefaction behavior for granular materials such as sand and sand-silt mixtures ...

A Method to Estimate Dynamic Pore Water Pressure Growth of Saturated Sand-Gravel Materials

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The liquefaction of saturated sand-gravel material samples from the Xinjiang valley were investigated under cyclic loading. A series of large-scale dynamic triaxial tests were used to determine the dynamic characteristics of the sand-gravel sample under ...
