Landslides, earthquakes, and other natural events can change the landscape and generate
human and economic losses, affecting transportation and public service infrastructure. In …

The potential effects of soil liquefaction at level ground sites should be evaluated through
examining soil element responses of the individual soil layers and system responses of the …

The effective mitigation of the liquefaction hazard requires an improved understanding of the
consequences of liquefaction in terms of ground shaking, permanent displacement, and …

Liquefaction or cyclic softening from earthquake shaking have caused significant damage of
buildings with shallow foundations. In recent earthquakes, buildings have punched into …

Ground failure in Adapazari, Turkey during the 1999 Kocaeli earthquake was severe.
Hundreds of structures settled, slid, tilted, and collapsed due in part to liquefaction and …

This study presents an exposure model for the residential building stock in the Middle East,
developed for the purpose of multi-hazard risk assessment. The exposure model provides …

Excessive building settlement and tilt on liquefiable soils has led to significant damage in
previous earthquakes. The state-of-practice for evaluating liquefaction-induced building …

Ground failure in Adapazari, Turkey during the 1999 Kocaeli earthquake (Mw= 7.4) was
severe. In four central downtown districts, where more than 1200 buildings collapsed or …

Abstract On February 6, 2023, two devastating earthquakes occurred on the East Anatolian
Fault, Turkiye. The earthquakes had severe impacts on civil engineering structures in …

Current practice in seismic design often assumes free-field conditions for the estimation of
liquefaction-induced building settlement. This is inaccurate, as a structure places additional …
