About the Book
Geotechnical Earthquake Engineering
Author(s): Ikuo Towhata
This book presents all issues of earthquake geotechnical engineering in a
comprehensive way. It summarizes the present knowledge on earthquake
hazards and their causative mechanisms, experimental studies on
nonlinear complex soil behaviour, an analysis to predict ground behaviour
during earthquakes, field studies to determine nature of real ground as
input data for analysis, and damage mitigation technologies. Information
obtained from earthquake damage investigation (such as ground motion,
landslides, earth pressure, fault action, or liquefaction) as well as data from
laboratory tests and field investigation is supplied, together with
exercises/questions.
