Abstract: The predicted severity of liquefaction manifested at the ground surface is a popular and pragmatic proxy of damage potential for infrastructure. Toward this end, the liquefaction potential index (LPI) and similar models ...

Abstract: In deterministic evaluations, liquefaction triggering potential is assessed by comparing the computed factor-of-safety (FS) against liquefaction triggering to some minimal acceptable FS. While some guidelines are available ...

Abstract: This study proposes the capacity cumulative absolute velocity (CAVc) as a novel measure for the resistance of granular soils to earthquake-induced liquefaction. The CAVc is defined as the cumulative absolute velocity (CAV) ...

Abstract: The severity of surface manifestation of liquefaction is commonly used as a proxy for liquefaction damage potential. As a result, manifestation severity index (MSI) models are more commonly being used in conjunction with ...

Abstract: Current simplified models for predicting liquefaction triggering and manifestation do not account for the mechanisms of liquefaction triggering and surface manifestation in a consistent and sufficient manner. Specifically, ...
