Sand Liquefaction Through Volume Decrease Potential
ABSTRACT Cyclic triaxial shear tests were performed on granular materials with a variety of grain sizes and uniformity coefficients to determine the effect of grain composition on the liquefaction potential of cohesionless soils. In place of the conventional measure of relative-density as a density index the difference between the current and minimum

Liquefaction Process of Sand During Cyclic Loading
ABSTRACT Both quick cyclic and slow cyclic shear tests are performed on saturated sand to investigate the process of liquefaction under the condition of constant mean principal stress. Special tests with varying amplitude of cyclic shear stress are also performed to estimate the change in excess pore water pressure during irregular cyclic loading ...

Prediction of Liquefaction in Sand Deposits during Earthquakes
A previously developed method for computing the progressive rise of pore pressures in saturated sands subjected to cyclic loading has been adjusted to fit data obtained from triaxial torsion tests. Also, the method has been incorporated into a computer code for the computation of pore pressures based on shear stresses obtained from an independent ...

Liquefaction resistance of MICP-treated calcareous sand with different particle size and gradation
Calcareous sand is a type of marine soil with the poor engineering performance and a high potential of liquefaction under seismic or wave action. To address this issue, microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP), an eco-friendly bio ...
