A CRITICAL STATE INTERPRETATION FOR THE CYCLIC LIQUEFACTIONRESISTANCE OF SILTY SANDS (2003)

Contrary to many laboratory investigations, common empirical correlations from in situ tests consider that the increase in the percentage of fines leads to an increase of the cyclic liquefaction resistance of sands. This paper draws upon the integrated Critical State Soil Mechanics framework in order to study this seemingly not univocal effect.
