Not only the ground failure but also the change of natural frequency of the site is induced by the liquefied layer, while from the vibration point of view the structure s [...]

At present, the seismic design of structures is mainly based on the response spectra. The seismic responses for the deep foundations, the underground structures and struc [...]

Liquefaction is one of the important reasons in earthquake damages. The response and damage for the foundations and underground structures are dominated by soil deformati [...]

The earthquake-induced differential settlement of building on weak subsoil is one of the typical damages caused by earthquake. Generally, the earthquake-induced different [...]

At 14:28 May 12 2008, a catastrophic earthquake of magnitude 8.0, the epicenter of which locates at Wenchuan, struck Sichuan Province (N31.00, E103.40). The earthquake ca [...]

The method of liquefaction prediction is very important to seismic design of foundations and engineering structures. The liquefaction prediction method in Chinese seismic [...]
