To further contribute to the understanding of this complicated dynamic phenomenon, centrifuge tests were performed in this research to analyze the liquefaction behavior of level saturated sandy grounds. The test results showed that the excess pore pressure in the liquefied sand was dissipated by the combined process of the solidification of the sand grains and the consolidation of the solidified layer. Based on the test results, a nonlinear model for the solidified layer thickness versus time, i.e., the solidification velocity, was developed. A new dissipation model was also developed by combining the nonlinear solidification model with Scott’s theory to improve the prediction for the time history of excess pore pressure. In addition, a method for evaluating the input parameters in the dissipation model was proposed by relating the parameters to the particle size and the relative density of soils. The proposed dissipation model properly estimated the dissipation of excess pore pressure with time observed in the centrifuge experiments.

Empirical methodology to estimate seismically induced settlement of partially saturated sand / Majid Ghayoomi in Journal of geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering, Vol. 139 N° 3 (Mars 2013)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of geotechnical and geoenvironmental engineering > Vol. 139 N° 3 (Mars 2013) . - pp. 367-376 Titre : Empirical methodology to estimate seismically induced settlement of partially saturated sand Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Majid Ghayoomi, Auteur ; John S. McCartney, Auteur ; Hon-Yim Ko, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : pp. 367-376 Note générale : geotechnique Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : settlement  earthquake engineering  design  centrifuge models saturated soils  sand (soil type)  seismic effects Résumé : Settlement of soil layers during and after earthquake shaking is a major cause of damage to buildings and geotechnical structures. The available empirical design methods to consider seismically induced settlement focus on sands in dry or water-saturated conditions, and there is currently a gap in the basic understanding of the mechanisms of seismically induced settlements of partially saturated sands. An effective stress-based empirical methodology is proposed to estimate the seismically induced settlement of a free-field layer of sand in partially saturated conditions. This approach estimates the settlement by separately considering the volumetric strains caused by compression of void space during strong shaking (seismic compression) and dissipation of excess pore water pressures generated during earthquake shaking (postcyclic reconsolidation). A parametric evaluation of the methodology indicates that the small strain shear modulus, the parameters of the modulus reduction curve, the approach to estimate the upper bound on volumetric strain during liquefaction, and the pore water pressure generation parameter can have significant impacts on the predicted settlement. The model predictions were validated using results from a newly developed centrifuge physical modeling system that involved the use of steady-state infiltration to maintain a uniform degree of saturation with depth in the sand layer. Both the model and experimental results show a nonlinear trend in surface settlement with degree of saturation, with a minimum value obtained for sand at a degree of saturation between 0.3 and 0.6.
