SUBJECTS OF THE LIQUEFACTION RESEARCH SEEN TO THE LIQUEFACTION DAMAGE OF THE GREAT EAST JAPAN EARTHQUAKE DISASTER

抄録

This paper discusses the new subjects of the liquefaction research regarding the liquefaction damage of the Great East Japan Disaster. Specifically, the subject about the liquefaction potential assessment, the subject about the evaluation of ground subsidence caused by liquefaction and the subject seen to generate the liquefaction damage of a river levee, etc. are discussed based on the damage observed or the experimental results. It has been shown that understanding current damage on the extension of the present technology has a limit, and that the prediction and countermeasure technology of the liquefaction damage based on a new concept is necessary.
