Seismic Performace and Stimul of Pile Foundations in Liquefued and Laterally Spreading Ground (Geotechnical Special Publication)
Seismic Performace and Stimul of Pile Foundations in Liquefued and Laterally Spreading Ground - Geotechnical Special Publication Author:Ross Boulanger & Kohji Tokimatsu (editors) This Geotechnical Special Publication contains twenty-five papers from a workshop on seismic performance and simulation of pile foundations in liquefied and laterally spreading ground, held in Davis, California on March 16-19, 2005. The papers discuss physical measurements and observations from earthquake case histories, field tests in blast-liq... more »uefied ground, dynamic centrifuge model studies, and large-scale shaking table studies. They also contain recent findings on fundamental soil-pile-interaction mechanisms, numerical analysis methods, and reviews and evaluations of existing and emerging design methodologies. This proceedings provides comprehensive coverage of a major issue in earthquake engineering practice and hazard mitigation efforts, and will be beneficial to researchers and practitioners alike.« less
