Analysis of Liquefaction Potential Based on Seismic Wave Velocity in Bengkulu City
Bengkulu City has a high liquefaction rate, both geologically and geophysically. This is because Bengkulu City consists of rocks in the form of sand, silt, mud, clay, coral fragments and gravel in alluvial areas (Qa) and floodplains.

Liquefaction perspective of soil ageing [PDF]
Subsoil liquefaction during strong earthquakes is one of the major seismic threats to the human community. Over the past few decades various methodologies have been proposed to assess liquefaction vulnerability; however, recent seismic events in Japan have revealed that current assessment methods are over conservative, which results in unnecessarily ...

Return Period of Soil Liquefaction [PDF]
The paper describes a performance-based approach to the evaluation of liquefaction potential, and shows how it can be used to account for the entire range of potential ground shaking. The result is a direct estimate of the return period of liquefaction, rather than a factor of safety or probability of liquefaction conditional upon ground shaking with ...

AN INVESTIGATION ON THE EFFECTIVE PARAMETERS OF LOOSE SANDS LIQUEFACTION POTENTIAL USING IMPROVED HYPERCUBE SAMPLING METHOD [PDF]
The occurrence of the liquefaction phenomenon in saturated loose sandy soils under seismic loads causes the soil particles to tend to decrease in volume.

Assessment of liquefaction potential index for Mumbai city [PDF]
Mumbai city is the financial capital of India and is fifth most densely populated city in the world. Seismic soil liquefaction is evaluated for Mumbai city in terms of the factors of safety against liquefaction (FS) along the depths of soil profiles for ...

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

Use of ANN, C4.5 and Random Forest Algorithm in the Evaluation of Seismic Soil Liquefaction [PDF]
Liquefaction is one of the disasters caused due to earthquake. In 1999, Chi-Chi, Taiwan, earthquake is an example of liquefaction prone disasters induced due to Mw 7.6 earthquake.

Effect of Micropiles on Clean Sand Liquefaction Risk Based on CPT and SPT
Liquefaction is a hazardous seismic-based phenomenon, which causes an abrupt decrease in soil strength properties and can result in the massive destruction of the built environment.
