Earthquake-induced liquefaction causes soil to exhibit fluidlike behavior due to a sudden
increase in pore water pressure and a concurrent decrease in effective stress. The …

With the rapid development of nanotechnology and multidisciplinary cross applications and
the limitations of traditional materials, nanomaterials are being introduced for soil …

Cyclic triaxial tests were performed to investigate the influence of colloidal silica grout on the
deformation properties of saturated loose sand. Distinctly different deformation properties …

Current techniques for liquefaction screening, ground modification for liquefaction mitigation,
and post-improvement verification rely on knowledge gained from extensive research on …

This paper reports results of a full-scale field test to assess the performance of dilute
colloidal silica stabilizer in reducing the settlement of liquefiable soil. Slow injection methods …

This book provides a comprehensive guide to the design of foundations for tall buildings.
After a general review of the characteristics of tall buildings, various foundation options are …

Low-pressure injection of nanosilica aqueous suspensions is often adopted to either
waterproof or increase the liquefaction resistance of granular soils. The basic principle …

The traditional soil stabilization techniques, which primarily include calcium-rich additives,
are gradually replaced by environmentally friendly techniques as the former increases the …

Climate change may have multifaceted impacts on the safety and performance of
infrastructure. Accounting for the different ways in which potential climate change scenarios …

Although traditional methods of liquefaction mitigation have been widely applied in
engineering practice, some prominent problems remain such as limits on the size of the …
