The 2015 Gorkha Nepal Earthquake: Insights from Earthquake Damage Survey
Katsuichiro Goda,Takashi Kiyota,Rama Mohan Pokhrel,Gabriele Chiaro,Toshihiko Katagiri,Keshab Sharma,Sean Wilkinson +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the seismotectonic setting and regional seismicity in Nepal and analyzes available aftershock data and ground motion data to gain deeper understanding of the observed earthquake damage in Nepal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of initial static shear on liquefaction and large deformation properties of loose saturated Toyoura sand in undrained cyclic torsional shear tests
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of static shear plays on the large deformation behavior of loose saturated sand during undrained cyclic loading, and three modes of failure were distinguished into liquefaction (cyclic and rapid flow) and residual deformation by comparing both monotonic and cyclic undrained behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquefaction effects and associated damages observed at the Wellington CentrePort from the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake
Misko Cubrinovski,Jonathan D. Bray,Christopher de la Torre,Michael J. Olsen,Brendon Bradley,Gabriele Chiaro,Emilia Stocks,Liam Wotherspoon +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present key observations from the QuakeCoRE-GEER post-earthquake reconnaissance efforts at the CentrePort of Wellington, showing that the different materials and methods used to construct the reclaimed land at CentrePort influenced the patterns of observed liquefaction and its effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconnaissance report on geotechnical and structural damage caused by the 2015 Gorkha Earthquake, Nepal
Gabriele Chiaro,Takashi Kiyota,Rama Mohan Pokhrel,Katsuichiro Goda,Toshihiko Katagiri,Keshab Sharma +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a field survey was conducted in Kathmandu, Trishuli, Melamchi, Baluwa (epicentral area) and Pokhara from 1 to 6 May 2015.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strain localization characteristics of loose saturated Toyoura sand in undrained cyclic torsional shear tests with initial static shear
TL;DR: In this article, the limiting value of shear strain, at which strain localization appears during undrained cyclic torsional shear tests with initial static shear, performed on loose Toyoura sand specimens (Dr=44-48%) up to a single amplitude of strain exceeding 50%, was evaluated.
