During an earthquake, soil can weaken through subsidence and liquefaction. These processes can cause buildings to collapse as the soil becomes unable to support their weight. Researchers have now ...

The AI-based model proposed by researchers from Japan provides detailed soil stability maps, allowing smart cities to identify safe construction zones and mitigate liquefaction risks. The proposed ...

In a new study, the conventional understanding of soil liquefaction is being challenged, significantly reshaping our comprehension of earthquake-related soil deformation. Traditionally, soil ...

Updated liquefaction maps are now available for Te Puke, showing how properties could be affected during a large earthquake. According to Western Bay of Plenty District Council, l ...

Soil liquefaction that results in infrastructure damage has long been a point of contention for urban planners and engineers. Accurately predicting the soil liquefaction risk of a region could help ...

Soil liquefaction, a destructive phenomenon occurring during earthquakes, has traditionally been associated with undrained conditions near the earthquake epicenter. However, new research conducted by ...
