Soil Liquefaction and Cyclic Mobility Evaluation for Level Ground during Earthquakes

Abstract

I am most grateful to my colleagues in the ASCE Geotechnical Division for their invitation to prepare this state-of-the-art paper on soil liquefaction during earthquakes. It is a great compliment to many colleagues and friends who through their original ideas, cooperation, and invaluable critiques have helped to raise the state of knowledge in this field over the past decade to a condition where engineers can practice in an extremely difficult area with some reasonable level of confidence.
