Proceedings from the Japan-U.S. Workshop on Earthquake Resistant Design of Lifeline Facilities and Countermeasures against Soil Liquefaction (6th). Held in Tokyo, Japan on June 11-13, 1996
This sixth Japan-US Workshop provided a forum for new approaches to the earthquake resistant design and damage mitigation of lifelines, and advanced techniques for characterizing liquefaction, stabilizing hazardous sites and improving postearthquake response and recovery. Ten papers review lifeline performance during the Northridge and Hyogo-Ken Nanbu earthquakes, in particular that of buried pipelines appertaining to water supply systems. Another twelve papers deal specifically with the observed seismic performance of underground structures, quaywalls, and foundations. Six papers concern observations of ground motion, displacement, and strain during a number of recent Japanese earthquakes. Analytical and experimental studies of liquefaction mechanisms and prediction are the focus of a group of eleven papers. Ten papers concerns a variety of techniques and approaches for the remediation and mitigation of liquefaction, as well as the earthquake resistant design and construction of lifelines.
