Numerical Simulation of the Effect of High Confining Pressure on Drainage Behavior of Liquefiable Clean Sand
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This article presents numerical simulations investigating pore pressure buildup of a sand layer with a free drainage boundary at the top under both low and high overburden pressures and subjected to earthquake base excitation. ...
Effect of Field Drainage on Seismic Pore Pressure Buildup and Kσ under High Overburden Pressure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper studies the effect of a high effective overburden pressure [σv0′= ∼600 kPa (6 atm)] under two drainage conditions on the field liquefaction behavior of saturated Ottawa sand. A series of eight centrifuge ...
Pore Pressure and Kσ Evaluation at High Overburden Pressure under Field Drainage Conditions. I: Centrifuge Experiments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This article is the first of two companion papers studying the effect of overburden pressure on the liquefaction behavior of saturated Ottawa sand. A series of four centrifuge tests were conducted simulating a 5-m layer ...
