Large earthquakes initiate chains of surface processes that last much longer than the brief
moments of strong shaking. Most moderate‐and large‐magnitude earthquakes trigger …

Newmark's sliding-block model is widely used to estimate coseismic slope performance.
Early efforts to develop simple regression models to estimate Newmark displacement were …

A simplified semiempirical predictive relationship for estimating permanent displacements
due to earthquake-induced deviatoric deformations is presented. It utilizes a nonlinear fully …

During the twentieth century, several methods to assess the stability of slopes during
earthquakes were developed. Pseudostatic analysis was the earliest method; it involved …

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 …

Estimation of Newmark sliding displacement plays an important role for evaluating seismic
stability of slopes. Current empirical models generally utilize predefined functional forms and …

Permanent sliding displacement represents a common damage parameter for evaluating the
seismic stability of slopes. Recently developed empirical models for the sliding displacement …

Abstract In this study, Material Point Method (MPM) is improved to simulate coseismic slope
stability and liquefaction-induced embankment failure under earthquake loading. First, by …

Shear-induced seismic slope displacement is estimated for earth structures or natural slopes
due to shallow crustal earthquakes along active plate margins. The proposed procedure …
