Liquefaction is a phenomenon in which the strength and stiffness of a soil is reduced by earthquake shaking or other rapid loading. Liquefaction can cause major damage during an earthquake.

The proposed procedure is applied to assess the soil liquefaction potential, which is found to be considerably affected by the inherent spatial variability of soil properties. Parametric studies, ...

soil liquefaction occurred along the coastal areas, causing major damage to buildings as well as water supplies and sewage systems. The AIST map was created from borehole data collected from about ...
