Abstract

The Navy, forced by its mission to locate at the waterfront, often on loose, saturated cohesionless soils, faces a severe liquefaction threat. Research has been in progress to evaluate the Princeton University Effective Stress Soil Model. This paper discusses that model and presents a validation example study comparing model predictions with a centrifuge experiment.

Soil-Structure Interaction at the Waterfront

St. Louis, Missouri

The Navy, forced by its mission to locate at the waterfront, often on loose, saturated cohesionless soils, faces a severe liquefaction threat. Research has been in progress to evaluate the Princeton University Effective Stress Soil Model. This paper discusses that model and presents a validation example study comparing model predictions with a centrifuge experiment.
