Rachelle Howell, Auteur ; Ellen M. Rathje, Auteur ; Ronnie Kamai, Auteur |Drainage methods for liquefaction remediation have been in use since the 1970s and have traditionally included stone columns, gravel drains, and more recently prefabricated vertical drains. This paper presents the results from a dynamic centrifu[...]![]()

Gokhan Saygili, Auteur ; Ellen M. Rathje, Auteur |Earthquake-induced sliding displacement is the parameter most often used to assess the seismic stability of slopes. The expected displacement can be predicted as a function of the characteristics of the slope (yield acceleration) and the ground [...]![]()

Ellen M. Rathje, Auteur ; Gokhan Saygili, Auteur |Permanent sliding displacements are used to evaluate the seismic stability of earth slopes, and current practice utilizes a pseudoprobabilistic approach to predict the expected sliding displacement. The pseudoprobabilistic approach specifies a d[...]![]()

Ellen M. Rathje, Auteur ; Albert R. Kottke, Auteur ; Whitney L. Trent, Auteur |Seismic site response analysis evaluates the influence of local soil conditions on earthquake ground shaking. There are multiple sources of potential uncertainty in this analysis; the most significant pertaining to the specification of the input[...]![]()

Kenan Hazirbaba, Auteur ; Ellen M. Rathje, Auteur |It is well established that the main mechanism for the occurrence of liquefaction under seismic loading conditions is the generation of excess pore water pressure. Most previous research efforts have focused on clean sands, yet sand deposits wit[...]![]()

Ellen M. Rathje, Auteur ; Gokhan Saygili, Auteur |Sliding block displacements often are used to evaluate the potential for ground failure due to slope instability. The procedures used to assess sliding block displacement typically use deterministic or pseudoprobabilistic approaches, in which th[...]
