Shear wave velocity, V s, is a soil mechanical property that can be advantageously
measured in both the field and laboratory under real and controlled conditions. The …

This fully updated second edition provides an introduction to geotechnical earthquake
engineering for first-year graduate students in geotechnical or earthquake engineering …

Along with source and path effects, site response analysis is a vital component of
earthquake ground motion prediction. Semi-empirical ground motion prediction equations …

The blow count (N) measured from the standard penetration test is widely used to predict the
shear wave velocity (V s) of soils. As the NV s relationships vary from one region to another …

Majority of the presently available machine learning (ML) models employed to assess the
liquefaction potential of soils are for sands or sands containing silt fraction. In the current …

The earthquake sequence that occurred on 6 February 2023 in Turkiye caused significant
damage to various infrastructures including geostructures such as dams. A total of 17 earth …

Ergodic site response models are generally conditional on the time-averaged shear wave
velocity in the upper 30 m (VS 30). Ground motion databases contain many recordings from …

A generic predictive model of earthquake-induced slope displacement subjected to shallow
crustal earthquake events is developed using displacements computed from finite-element …

The relationship between the shear wave velocity (VS) and the blow number of the Standard
Penetration Tests (N SPT) was investigated with reference to the structurally complex …

A statistical analysis has been performed aiming at determining to what extent a qualitative
engineering-geological characterization of subsoil may provide constraints to the shear …
