Abstract: Pipe leakage can induce soil fluidization resulting in severe consequences to the urban environment where underground buried pipes are extensively used. Soil fluidization is the process of the transition of soil particles ...

Abstract: Numerous recent failures of tailings storage facilities (TSFs) (e.g., the 2019 Brumadinho failure in Brazil, the 2018 Cadia failure in Australia) have occurred in the last decade, providing important case histories ...

Abstract: Ground improvement (GI) techniques have shown promise in effective liquefaction mitigation, but the physical mechanisms governing their three-dimensional (3D) response during dynamic loading are not yet fully understood. ...

Abstract: Cone penetrometer testing (CPT) is a frequently used soil characterization technique for liquefaction assessment; however, this technique has shortcomings in accurately characterizing very thin soil layers having thicknesses ...
