Journal ArticleDOI
A kriging method of interpolation used to map liquefaction potential over alluvial ground
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the liquefaction potential at unsampled locations where borehole data are not available based on the measured liquefactory potentials at selected borehole locations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shaking table tests on the lateral response of a pile buried in liquefied sand
Jonathan R. Dungca,Jiro Kuwano,Akihiro Takahashi,T. Saruwatari,Jun Izawa,Hiroko Suzuki,Kohji Tokimatsu +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the lateral resistance of a pile subjected to liquefaction-induced lateral flow was investigated and the deformation of the soil surrounding the pile when a large relative displacement between the pile and the soil is induced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of reinforced soil walls during the 2011 Tohoku earthquake
TL;DR: The 2011 Tohoku earthquake off the Pacific coast of Japan (Mw = 9.0) contained a huge source region of approximately 450 km by 200 km and caused extensive damage to various structures as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of Quasi-Elastic Stiffness Parameters of Dense Toyoura Sand in Hollow Cylinder Apparatus and Triaxial Apparatus with Bender Elements
TL;DR: In this article, the stiffness parameters of dense Toyoura sand were measured at various stress states during similar consolidation and p′-constant shear tests in a hollow cylinder apparatus and a triaxial apparatus equipped with local deformation transducers and bender elements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Initial Fabric and Shearing Direction on Cyclic Deformation Characteristics of Sand.
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of initial fabric and shearing direction on cyclic deformation characteristics such as stress-strain response, shear modulus and damping ratio from drained static cyclic tests on medium dense Toyoura sand using hollow cylinder apparatus.
