Assessment of risk of liquefaction in granular materials and it's mitigation

Liquefaction of sandy soils during earthquakes is an important issue requiring careful study even though significant advances have been made in recent years in its numerical modelling. The numerical simulations are of great importance in providing an insight into the mechanics of liquefaction. However, in real life situations, what is more important is the advancement of suitable measures and methodologies to reduce the risk of liquefaction. In …
