Strain-based assessment of liquefaction and seismic settlement of saturated sand

This study presents results from an extensive experimental research on saturated clean sand deposits subjected to seismic loading. A total of 29 freshly reconstituted soil samples were tested under laboratory conditions. Strain-controlled, undrained, cyclic triaxial tests were conducted to evaluate...

The level of induced cyclic shear strain varied between 0.01% and 0.5%. The generation of excess pore water pressure was measured under various consolidation stresses ranging from 100 kPa to 400 kPa.
