Characterization of the Small-Strain Stiffness of Soils at an In-situ Liquefaction Test Site

by admin | Nov 29, 2022

Strong ground motions from earthquakes can result in the reduction of the shear modulus and wave propagation characteristics of soils, and can produce liquefaction and cyclic softening during shaking and for some time following the seismic event. While the ground...

Near-Surface Response of Beach Sand : An Experimental Investigation

by admin | Nov 29, 2022

The near-surface region of a coastal sediment bed is complex and dynamic. At some sites, near-surface sediment deposits are susceptible to extreme events, such as tsunamis or other large overflows, which induce high shear stresses on the sediment bed. The specific...
