This paper describes a comprehensive characterisation of liquefaction resistance of a sandy
soil collected from the 'Terreiro do Paço'in the historical centre of Lisbon (Portugal) …

This paper introduced a novel soil liquefaction prediction model with proposed features.
Initially, pre-processing was carried out and then diverse improved features (chi-square …

Abstract Design of piles under lateral loads requires accurate estimation of the pile
deflections. The Winkler beam model is the most popular mechanical model for piles …

Microzonation for earthquake-induced liquefaction hazard is the subdivision of a territory at
a municipal or submunicipal scale in areas characterized by the same probability of …

The stiffness properties of soils, particularly shear modulus and damping ratio, play a
fundamental role in predicting the ground deformation during cyclic and dynamic loading …

The accurate estimation of earthquake-induced liquefaction damage requires detailed
ground response analysis, which does not generally consider liquefaction. This paper …

The intrinsic properties of sands have a strong influence on the behaviour of these soils.
Therefore, particle shape and granular packing can provide relevant insights into the …

The geotechnical ground investigation involves several testing techniques. Within such
techniques, the Piezocone Penetration Test with seismic wave measurements (SCPTu) is …

The occurrence of soil liquefaction is an interesting and complicated field in the geotechnical
earthquake, which has attained the consideration of a lot of analysts in current years …

Soil stiffness can be estimated by geophysical and dynamic testing methods. In the
laboratory, the most common methods to measure the small-strain stiffness are the bender …
