... In the classical liquefaction and site response analyses of saturated granular deposits, in situ parameters such as dynamic shear modulus and stress ratio required to cause liquefaction are required. The in situ state of soil can only be captured by field methods as it is difficult to obtain...

... The results of a round-robin cyclic undrained triaxial test program using Toyoura Sand are reported. Toyoura Sand, which is a poorly-graded fine sand consisting of subangular to angular quartz-rich particles, has been widely used in Japan for the study on sand liquefaction. The cooperative tests...

Intermediate wave heights caused observable deformations, while low wave heights generated positive pore-water pressures...

... The liquefaction potential of sediment in Norton Sound and the northern Bering Sea was evaluated by estimating the liquefaction susceptibility of the material from in-situ and laboratory tests in terms of earthquake and wave loads required to liquefy the material, and then comparing estimated...
