Soil liquefaction is an example of a natural hazard where saturated soil substantially loses strength and stiffness in ...

Liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking or other rapid loading. Liquefaction can cause major damage during an earthquake.

Earthquake-induced soil liquefaction (liquefaction) is a leading cause of earthquake damage worldwide. Liquefaction is often described in the literature as the phenomena of seismic generation of ...

The proposed procedure is applied to assess the soil liquefaction potential, which is found to be considerably affected by the inherent spatial variability of soil properties. Parametric studies, ...

showing a 50% increase in liquefaction resistance compared to existing materials. Its low viscosity and controlled gelling time allow deep soil penetration while meeting environmental safety ...

One of its characteristics is it takes time to recover (from liquefaction damage),” Yoshiharu Yokoyama, an executive at Jibannet, which provides soil analysis services. Conditions that could ...
