Abstract: The paper presents a simplified approach to determine the post-cyclic deformation of liquefied sloping grounds. The approach uses instability curves derived from undrained multi-stage (cyclic+monotonic) triaxial tests. It is shown that the salient aspects of… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Ground motions and seismic site factors for the design and analysis of infrastructure systems are typically computed based on one-dimensional (1-D) site response analysis, assuming the ground surface is horizontal and the earthquake waves… read more here.
