Liquefaction of dam

Aamir Gulzar — Sun, 02 Jan 2022 14:40:12 GMT

In liquefaction analysis Of dam using ubc 3d, the pore water pressure is dissipating as soon as earthquake finishes and it is going into very high negative values. I am used post liquefaction factor of 0.45 and hardening factor of 0.1.

How can I mirror a geometry in plaxis 2d.

Saturation

Aamir Gulzar — Sat, 23 Oct 2021 12:07:27 GMT

Is there any way of giving saturation to soil model. I want to keep saturation at 98.5% in UBC 3d plm model in plaxis 2d. kindly help

Liquefaction analysis

Aamir Gulzar — Wed, 20 Oct 2021 10:05:01 GMT

I am working on liquefaction analysis. Can you tell me how and on which surface, I should apply the earthquake load? Surface displacement or a surface load? The geometry is quite simple, with foundation soil 45*45*6 and dam over it of height 4.5. Moreover I want to ask when applying the prescribed displacement, i usually keep ux and uy as 1.00 m. Will it effect my result, or is it not necessary to keep it like that?

While applying surface load , what should be value of Sigma x, y and z.

The dynamic boundary conditions are viscous for x and y but the deformation boundary conditions are confusing. What should I do with that.

Kindly suggest a module from which I can get the information. Thanking in anticipation.
