This paper evaluates earthquake-induced permanent ground deformations and the
structural response of a typical pile-supported wharf structure built over loose granular fill …

Earthquake recossaince survey showed that liquefaction of soil caused severe damage to
pile-supported structures, for example bridges and marine-wharf structures. Marine wharf …

Many ports in the US are located in areas of high seismicity and remain vulnerable to
damage from large earthquake events. Waterfront structures such as pile-supported …

The procedures currently used in the analysis and design of pile-supported wharf structures
are inadequate to consider the important features of the systems under seismic excitation …
