RISClosure to “Simplified Procedure for Coupled Seismic Sliding Movement of Slopes Using Displacement-Based Critical Acceleration” by Yaser Jafarian and Ali Lashgari
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Simplified Procedure for Coupled Seismic Sliding Movement of Slopes Using Displacement-Based Critical Acceleration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Downward movement of sliding soil mass in earthquake-induced earth slopes may gradually improve the system's stability. Hence, significant change in critical (or yield) acceleration of the slope is anticipated. The existing ...
Scalar- and Vector-Valued Fragility Analyses of Gravity Quay Wall on Liquefiable Soil: Example of Kobe Port
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The crucial role of intensity measure (IM) selection in the seismic fragility analysis of gravity quay walls is demonstrated in this paper. Scalar- and vector-valued fragility functions are presented for seismic vulnerability ...
Seismic Sliding Analysis of Sandy Slopes Subjected to Pore-Water Pressure Buildup
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pore-water pressure buildup strongly affects seismic permanent displacement of the slopes constituted from saturated soils. Previous attempts simulating the generation of excess pore pressures (or decrease in soil strength) ...

Shaking Table Test on Mitigation of Liquefaction-Induced Tunnel Uplift by Helical Pile
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The tunnels located in the shallow depths of loose saturated sand are significantly prone to liquefaction-induced uplift. Research works are, therefore, in progress to propose efficient techniques for mitigating uplift. ...
Softening Behavior and Volumetric Deformation of Rocks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a constitutive model and numerical analysis were conducted on various types of rocks under triaxial compression to determine their softening response and volumetric strain. Experimental data sets corresponding ...
Load-Settlement Mechanism of Shallow Foundations Rested on Saturated Sand with Upward Seepage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the ultimate bearing capacity and settlement of square and strip foundations in the presence of upward seepage were assessed using physical modeling. The experiments were conducted in two series with different ...
Seismic Interactive Deformations of Pipeline Buried in Sandy Slopes Using Numerical Modeling with a Systematic Calibration Procedure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The seismic landslide-pipe problem was investigated numerically using finite-difference code and a bounding surface soil constitutive model [Simple ANIsotropic SAND constitutive model (SANISAND)]. The SANISAND model was ...
Probabilistic Assessment of Liquefaction Occurrence in Calcareous Fill Materials of Kawaihae Harbor, Hawaii
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The simplified shear-wave velocity (Vs)–based procedure of liquefaction potential assessment was basically developed for terrigenous deposits, whereas its applicability for calcareous soils is not fully recognized. The ...
