Seismic Performance And Simulation of Pile Foundations in Liquefied And Laterally Spreading Ground: Proceedings of a Workshop, March 16-18, 2005, ... California (Geotechnical Special Publication)

By R.W. Boulanger

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-liquefied 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.
