Abstract: Five dynamic, large-scale centrifuge tests on pile-supported wharves were used to investigate the time- and depth-dependent nature of kinematic and inertial demands on the deep foundations during earthquake loading. The ...

Abstract: An equivalent static analysis (ESA) procedure is proposed for the design of pile-supported wharves subjected to combined inertial and kinematic loads during earthquakes. The accuracy of the ESA procedure was evaluated ...

Abstract: Field trials of microbially induced desaturation (MID) were conducted at two sites in Portland, Oregon underlain by liquefiable fine-grained soils. MID is an emerging method for mitigating the potential for triggering ...
